Fonda, well known to many of the older residents of this city, died at his home at Monte Vista, Colorado on Sunday, July 10th, of paralysis. Mr. Fonda was born near Amsterdam, July 3, 1833. He was united in marriage in 1854 to Miss Jennie Burns, who passed away six years ago, and the family went west in 1876, locating in Rockford, Ill. Eight years later Mr. Fonda removed to Colorado, and has made his home there since. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon, July 12th, and the remains were interred there beside the grave in which the wife rests. The deceased had been in poor health of late years, and his demise was not unexpected. Mr. Fonda leaves a son, Gus Fonda, of Rockford, Ill., and several distant relatives in Amsterdam.
