EAGAN, James
Obituary
Muskegon
News & Reporter, Oct 18, 1870 DROWNED - James Eagan, a sailor on the scow Selma was drowned at Port
Sherman last Thursday. The scow was
being towed out when it was discovered that she was running afoul the dock, and
Eagan and another man ran aft to see what was wrong. The deck being slippery and without any
railing by which to check his speed, Eagan ran off into the river. All efforts to save him proved
ineffectual.-- The body was
recovered and an inquest held by Justice Weller Friday, and his remains interred
in the city cemetery.
