Charles W. Nolf, son of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. P. Nolf, died at the house of his parents in Copemish on December 23, 1918.

He was born August 21, 1889, in Copemish, on the farm one-half mile east of town.  He was a graduate of the Copemish high school in 1909.  He completed the college preparatory for graduation in the Ferris Institute at Big Rapids.

In 1909 -10, he attended the law school at Ann Arbor.  In 1913 the Detroit College of Law conferred upon him the title and degree of Bachelor of Law, and the same year was admitted to the bar by the supreme court of this state.  In the latter part of 1913 he established a law office in this village and practiced law until 1917, when he gave up his office and enlisted for his country and was sent to Fort Sheridan, Illinois, to the officer's reserve training camp.  A few months later he returned home to await his call for overseas service.

He leaves a father and mother, one brother, Sargent Arnold W. Nolf, now in north Russia, two sisters, Mrs. Norman Jones of Cadillac and Mrs. Arthur Chubb of Muskegon and many other relatives and friends.
