                              CAPT. LEVI P. MANN

                    Capt. Levi P. Mann died this morning in 
                  his apartments in the Rice Block in St. 
                  Joseph of consumption, having been a sufferer 
                  for many years with the dread disease.  He is 
                  a member of Occidental lodge F. and A.M. and 
                  the funeral will be in charge of that body.
                    Capt. Mann was well known in Benton Harbor
                  as well as many other towns in the state.
                    Among the boats known here that he commanded
                  were the Puritan, Skylark, Messenger, Corona,
                  City of Louisville, Chicora, City of St. Joseph
                  and others.  At one time he held the highly 
                  responsible position of superintendent of life
                  saving stations for this district.  He was in
                  the navy during the Civil War.  He has been
                  an invalid for many years and has failed
                  rapidly of late.
