widow.
The following brief sketch of his
life prepared by Rev. Mr.. Sharts, has
kindly placed at our disposal which
we place before our readers:
Horace Harlow Boyers was born
Feb. IA, 1887, in Newstead, Erie
county, N. Y. AT later date the
family moved into Jackson county,
Michigan, where both parents died,
one in 1857, and the other in 1858.
Upon the outbreak of the war, Hor-
ace enlisted in Company c of the
9th regiment Of. Michigan Volunteer
Infantry, for the period of three
years. After a couple of years of
service his health failed and he re-
turned home, honorably discharged.
In January. 1864, he was married to
Miss Catherine Payne who survives
him having regained his health, he
re enlisted within week and Joined a
regiment which stayed in the field till
the close of the war. Throughout
the service, the 9th regiment was the
headquarters body guard of Gen.
Thomas, and with him marched to
the sea. About one year after the
war closed, Mr.. and Mrs. Boyers be-
came residents of this city. Two
years ago they purchased home, and
short time afterwards he received
his back pay. One year ago last
April he was elected Alderman of the
third ward and after a painful illness,
probably cancer of the stomach, he
died while sustainging this official re-
lation to the city government. Mr..
Boyers, with his wife, became mem
Der of the Congregational church in
April, 1877. He has one brother, G.
NJ. Boyers, residing in Monroe, and
another, Irving Boyers, living in Char.
lotte. He has one sister, Mrs. Mar
tha A. Manning, of Albion. All
these relatives and others, including
several of Mrs. Boyers' kindred were
Dresent at the funeral.
