Research notes for Michael

DOD is a GUESS. But hopefully, an educated one...
According to the obit, he died "on the 25th inst." ("on the 25th of this month") But the obit is dated the 5th. This, combined with the notorious practice papers had of recycling news from other papers, thus making this "news" a week old, suggests that Michael died on December 25th, 1875.
