Former Resident Dies In Muskegon, Michigan Word was received recently by Richard Miller of the death of Frederick E. VanderWater, 83, on 2 May at his home in Muskegon, Michigan. For many years the VanderWater family lived in Syracuse and conducted an antique shop. Collecting furniture over an extensive area, Mr. VanderWater had a wide acquaintance. Mr. and Mrs. VanderWater were so well informed on the history of antiques that they were considered authorities on the subject by dealers in surrounding towns. Survivors include their three sons, Douglas, Rodney and Eric. Mrs. VanderWater died the last year that the family lived in Syracuse. Pet Donkey Turns On Mistress; Injures Two Mrs. Rachel Morehead of North Webster is recovering satisfactorily at her home after sustaining a broken arm and numerous cuts and bruises when she was attacked by a pet donkey Friday.

For an unknown cause, the donkey seemed to go beserk and attacked Mrs. Morehead while she was tending the animal in the bam. Unable to free her arm from the animals jaws, Mrs. Mofehead cried for help. A son, Joe, who was cultivating in a near-by field, heard his mother’s cry for help, and with the aid of a passing motorist, who had heard the cries, was able to free the arm. Joe was also bitten by the animal While freeing his mother and both were treated by a doctor and immediately released. The donkey is being confined for further observation.
