  James Lacey, formerly of Pottstown, died on Sunday, the 11th, in Lawrence 
  Kansas, about age 60.
  He had been suffering from cancer of the neck for a year or two past. Mr. 
  Lacey, we believe, was a native of Camden NJ, but went to Birdsboro when a 
  young man to work in the iron business; afterwards lived in Pottstown for a 
  number of years and worked at the Pottstown Iron Co.  In 1878 he sold his 
  residence on Franklin St. and removed his family on 3/12/1878 to the west with 
  the Kansas colony from this place and vicinity.  In Kansas he engaged in 
  farming for some time and then disposed of his property and took up his 
  residence in Lawrence.  He was a brother-in-law of Thomas Francis, this 
  borough, an uncle of Mrs. Daniel W. Landis, and had numerous friends here who 
  will regret to learn of his decease.  He leaves a wife and 4 children.
