HEARS OF HIS
FATHERS DEATH
Word is Received by Clar-
ence E. Ice OF the Pass
ing of His Aged Parent
at the Old Home in Fair
mont, w. Va.

Confined to his bed with severe
attack of la grippe ard threatened
with pneumonia, Clarence E. Ice, past
chancellor commander of Phoenix
lodge, No. 9 Knights of Pythias, yes
tterday received the announcement of
the death in Fairmont, w. Va, of his
father, Andrew Ice, who has many
friends here. The telegram stated
that the death of the father of the
popular Phoenix man had occurred
early yesterday morning, following an
illness of several weeks.
Andrew Ice was 80 years and 5
months old. He had spent his entire
life in Fairmont his death occurring
at his home, within 100 miles of the
spot where stood the original Ice
home where he was born. He was
the youngest of fifteen children and
the last of his family.
Fifty-seven years ago in May he
married Martha Reynolds, a play
mate in childhood and staunch
friend and close companion throughout
life They celebrated their golden
wedding anniversary seven years ago
with the majority of their family
about them. There were nine chill
dren to bless their union, seven of
whom, as well as the mother, now
seventy-three years old, are left to
mourn their loss. Mr.. Ice was a con-
sistent member of the Christian
church and donated not only the site
upon which the Christian church
stands in Paramount, but also the site
for the church cemetery. He was
for years an elder in the church. He
belonged some years ago to the An
Gent Order Knights of the Mystic
Shrine ard was a firm believer in
the worth and beauties of fraternalism.
He was in early life farmer and
afterward a railroad man and miner.
Later he resumed farming
About five years ago he and Mrs.
Ice came to Phoenix to pay their
son Clarence a visit. They remained
here six months and in departing ex-
pressed hope that some time they
might return to make this their home.
During the six months they were
here Mr.. Ice made a wide circle of
acquaintance, who grew to love him
from his kindly spirit and his gentle
ness of character The children sur
viving are all at home with the ex-
ception of Clarence. A son, Charles l.,
lived here for several years, but re-
turned to the old home seven years
ago that he might be with his par
ents and look after their interests.

ily beside the widow. are: Clarence
