The casket was covered with beautiful floral tributes. That the deceased had made an honored place for himself in the com- munity />f which he was so long a useful member, was evidenced by the largo gathering which followed his remains to their last resting place, where he lies beside his daughter, Olive, wht< predeceased him by fif- teen years.
