GANGES -- George Potter died Friday morning Dec. 6.  He came to this place from Pennsylvania in 1866.  His occupation was that of a farmer.  He became acquainted with Mrs. McElroy with whom he united in marriage.  He had been a resident of Ganges and our postmaster for nearly a score of years.  He was a soldier in the late rebellion and was in service until the close of the war.  Mr. Potter was highly respected by all who knew him and was a good citizen for he was ready to help whenever it was desired.  He leaves a wife and two step children to mourn the loss of a kind husband and father.  He was followed to his last resting place by a large concourse of relatives and friends.  The funeral service was conducted by Rev. Loose.
