         DR. LEWIS WOOD - The Hillsdale Standard of March 29, 1892,
       has the following notice of DR. LEWIS WOOD who recently died
       at North Adams, and was buried in Sandstone:
       
         "LEWIS WOOD was born in the town of Scipio, county of Cayuga,
       state of New York, on the 24th day of January, 1827. He gradu-
       ated at the Geneva college of medicine in New York, June 10,
       1848, coming immediately after to Michigan. He located in
       Tompkins, Jackson county and commenced the practice of his
       chosen profession. April 11, 1853, he married Miss MARGARET
       HUNTLEY, of Tompkins township. One daughter was born unto them
       on the 17th day of April, 1857. August 9, 1857, his wife and
       child died. His affliction rested heavily upon him and for a
       number of weeks he was also prostrated with a severe fit of
       sickness. February 22, 1859, he married MARY JANE BENNETT,at
       the town of Sandstone, Jackson county. Soon thereafter he came
       to North Adams where he has followed his profession success-
       fully up to the time of his death. His wife, MARY JANE WOOD,
       died suddenly nearly eleven years ago, May 16, 1881, since
       which he has experienced something of a lonely life. He leaves
       one son to mourn his loss, also an aged father, the HON. AMZI
       WOOD, of Auburn, New York. JUDGE WOOD, father of the deceased,
       was born January 5, 1803, eighty-nine years ago last January,
       and was in too poor health to attend the funeral."
