In Memory of Murray J.
Townsed.

The subject of this scotch came
to Liberal about four years ago to
serve as bookeeper and stenog-
rapher, in Ellsaessar, Woods and
Henry's Office. Murray was a fine
Christian man who lived his
Christian profession. He was a
native Kansan, seeing the light of
life at Sterling, Kansas. Oct. 81,
1889, and the curtain dropped on
his earthly career May 10, 1914,
aged "a years, six months and IA
days. He was ambitious and fin
ished with honors at three schools
Friends Academy at Gate, Okla.
with a scholarship to Friends Uni
yersity, Central City Business
College, Central City, Nebraska,
and Salina Business College, from
which place he came to our city.
His personal life was clean and
he was a living proof that men
can be as good as good women.
At one time he was president of
Y. P. b. branch of the w. q. T.
U. made up of young people.
He was married to Miss G
Edith Gidley and they lived in
our city. Two children we're born
to them, Hazel and Marion the
latter waiting for his papa" in
the other world.
Through all the weary days
when the battle was on against the
ravages of disease, Murray's
friends were kind and loving and
he never lost his old time smile.
When first confined to the home
he wanted to live and accomplish
good in the world and we often
wonder why some of us who cum
Der the ground only, and never
help to make the world better live
on and Murray had to 90. At the
last when he knew he could not
live he longed to go and was ready,
tho he hated to leave his little
wife and daughter, He passed
away at the home of Mrs. Town
sends parents, Mr.. and Mrs. D,
Gidley on South, Sherman.
The funeral service was con-
Quoted at the M. <. Church
Wednesday, at p, N. by Rev.
Hockett. Prayer was voiced by
Rev. Heddin and a personal trib-
ute paid by Mrs. Grinstead. The
songs were sweet ana comforting.
The body was laid to rest in the
Liberal Cemetery.
Murray, toward the last wanted
to read Tennyson's Crossing the
Bar" May it's sentiments be
ours:-
And tho from out our bourne
of time and place, |
The flood may bear me far,
| hope to meet my Pilot face to |
face,
When l have crossed the bar,
