Death of T. F. Bingham of Smoker 

 Fame 



We are pained to announce an- 

 other oldtime Michigan man's 

 death in that of Mr. T. F. Bingham. 

 Heddon, Hilton, Hutchinson, Taylor 

 and now Bingham. Names that 

 have made Michigan famous in the 

 past. Names that by their living- 

 have made the world better. Names 

 that will go down in history as 

 men who did not live entirely for 

 themselves, but loved their fellow 

 man better than dollars and cents. 

 Men who never lost an opportunity 

 to. help some struggling brother over 

 some rough place at every oppor- 

 tunity. It is a list of nobility that 

 Michigan and the world may be 

 proud of. 



Mr. Bingham was born Jan. 2 2, 

 1830, in Woodstock, Vt. and was 

 therefore 84 years old at his 

 death, which occurred in Sugar City, 

 Colorado on August 2nd. There he 

 has lived with a daughter who 

 holds large interests in a sugar ranch, 

 since selling out his smoker busi- 

 ness. He was some past eighty 

 years old at death, exact date lack- 

 ing. During the period the Bingham 

 smoker factories were at Alma, Mich, 

 the writer had the pleasure of call- 

 ing on Mr. Bingham many times, 

 both at the factory and at the 

 residence. One always found him 

 the same genial business man, al- 

 ways ready to make ones stay a, 

 source of pleasure, seemingly not 

 thinking of what it was costing him 

 in strength during his declining- 

 years. Rheumatism was his ailment 

 during the last few years. At first 

 we would always find him at the 

 shop. Then later visits would find 

 him at home a part of the time, 

 until the last year of his residence 

 in Alma, we found him at his home. 

 Rheumatism confined him to the 

 house for the last four years of his 

 life. Mrs. Bingham still resides with 

 her daughter at Sugar City, Colo- 

 rado.

FOR SALE — An extra-fine quality of 

 white extracted honey put up in new 

 60-lb. net tin cans, two in a case for 

 shipment. Our crop of honey this year 

 is a blend o^" about half each of clover 

 and basswood, thoroughly cured on the 

 hives by ;.he bees before extracting. 

 The fact is, not a single pound of the 

 crop wai! extracted until some time 

 after the close of the honey-flow. Rich, 

 ripe, ropy goods, worth twice as much 

 as thin unripe honey extracted during 

 the flow. For this exquisite stock we 

 are asking 10 cts. per pound on car 

 here. Do not be deceived by cheap un- 

 ripe stock when a trifle more buys this 

 superior white clover-basswood blend 

 that your customers will want more of 

 from time to time. Ten yards. One 

 thousand colonies. Liberal sample free.
