WAS AN EARLY SETTLER
Nathan Soule, Was Member of Michigan Colony of Pioneer Days

Nathan Soule, a pioneer of Plymouth County, died on Sunday, October 16, 1921, at the home of his nephew, Frank Soule in Hinton. Mr. Soule was born in Michigan on June 17, 1845, and came to Plymouth County in the early days, when a large number of Michigan people settled in Lincoln and Hungerford townships. He was one of a family of seven boys and three daughters. He is survived by two sisters, Mrs. McCaslin and Mrs. Rice, who live in Michigan.

Mr. Soule was a cabinet maker by trade but indoor life injured his health, and he devoted his energies to out door carpentering.

He suffered from heart trouble the past three years, and death was not unexpected. Mr. Soule never married. He was of a retiring disposition and the very soul of honor, according to those with whom he was closely associated for years. A large number of relatives and friends mourn his loss.

The funeral services were held on Tuesday at the Methodist church in Hinton, the pastor, Rev. D. M. Simpson officiating.
