The many friends of Arthur Gardner were much grieved to hear of his sudden death which took place at Grand Rapids last Friday night. He was the son of Wm. Gardner and had always lived here until about two years ago when they moved to Grand Rapids where he had employment on a street car. He was a promising young man and had many friends. The cause of his death was pneumonia. His remains were brought to Fennville for burial.
