RAY KEITH

On Saturday, March 13, at Poca-
tello, occurred the death of Ray
Keith, son of Mr.. and Mrs. E. c.
Keith of this place. He had been at
home for a short visit last week, only
returning to his duties with the o. S.
L. at PoeatelIo on Saturday, and be-
ing stricken with pneumonia the
first of the week The dread disease
was not long in doing its work and
tho the best of medical aid and most
efficient nurse service we're admins
tered, he succumbed about 3 o'clock
Saturday morning. His sister Mrs.
Nellie Dibble and his brother Robert
Keith, were at his bedside having
been summoned early in the week
and being in constant attendance.
Funeral services conducted by Rev.
Reed, assisted by the American Le-
gion were held Monday afternoon at
the Presbyterian Church and inter
ment made in Riverside Cemetery.
Ray Keith was born at Brant Lake
So. Dakota, November 20, 1887, be-
ing past 80 years at the time of his
death. In 1902 he came to Payette
with his parents and has lived here
a part of the tue since, tho his work
as a mechanic has taken him else
where. A natural mechanic, he early
begun his work along his chosen line,
and has spent the greater part of his
life in construction and engineering,
being in the employ of the Oregon
Short Line about eight years. He
was of a quiet retiring nature, and
his studious thorough disposition
found its reward in an unusual eff
cheney which has accompanied all his
work,
He served with Co, B, 91st Divis-
ion, heavy artillery, in the recent
war, resuming his interrupted duties
upon his return from overseas.
Besides the parents, are left three
sisters, Mrs. T. E. Helmbolt of Stetler
Canada, Mrs. Leonard Wright of Je-
rome, Idaho, Mrs. Earl Dibble of
Payette, and three brothers Walter
S. Keith of Emmett, Idaho, Robert
and Wayne of this place, all of whom
excepting Mrs. Helmbolt have been
at the family home during the past
week.

A telegram was received announc-
ing the death of Mrs. Bea Larkin
which occurred Monday afternoon at
her home in Taylorville, Illinois, at

ceived with sadness by many of the
Payette people as Mrs. Larkin who
was a sister of Mrs. A. V. Strauss,
had been resident of Payette for
several years and was very popular
among the people of this place. She
has been a sufferer for many months
with rheumatism and other complica
tions She went to Chicago some
time ago in the hopes of receiving re-
lief from specialist doctors. She
underwent two operations. We under
stand the funeral was held at Taylor
vile Wednesday afternoon.

NOW SERVING TIME.

Frank Young, the man who was
brought from Lewiston last week
by Sheriff Jefferis, is now serving a
sentence of from 4 to Ia years in
the State Prison at Boise. His SEN
tence is none too heavy for man
Of his type. He is a bad man and
seems to be proud of it. He made
an open confession of being implicat-
ed in stealing the Blunck car last
October and voluntarily told of other
depredations committed. He was
also determined upon leaving Lewis
ton with the sheriff that he would
go no further than Riparia, and
seemingly had considerable assist
ance in an attempt to escape, while
changing cars in the night, but Mr..
Jefferis is not a man to be bluffed
although it required lot of tact and
good Judgment to accomplish the
task with a bunch of bolsheviks, in
Guiding some of the train crew who
were ready to assist the prisoner. In
coming from Lewiston to Payette it
requires three changes in the night.

14th, after an illness of several
weeks. Funeral services were held
at New Plymouth Tuesday afternoon

Marines, having entered the service
early in the war and took part in
eight of the worst engagements. The
sympathy of large circle of fri
ends will go out to the bereayed rela-
tives.

Racheal Golden, wife of Emmett

years, months and IS days.
Those who live after her are her

a father and mother, 4 sisters and
one brother and a host of friends.
The Lord who calls our loved ones
away comforts also those who mourn
1--WE shall meet beyond the river,
is the peculiar hope of the Christian.
Truly the hour is dark, yet there's
never a day so dreary but God can
make it bright.
And unto the soul that trusts Him
He giveth songs in the night.
There's never a path so hidden
but God will lead the way.
If we seek for the Spirits guild
ance and patiently wait and pray.
After a brief illness, the spirit of
t hismother peacefully glided away
into the eternities to God who gave
it. The soul had gone to its crown
ing.
In the year 1909 she fellowshiped
with the Payette Church of God and
remained a member till death. To
all she leaves a precious heritage, a
hope to meet again.
Funeral services were conducted
from the Church of God by her pas
tor Rev. Argyll e. Houser.
Interment was made in Payette
cemetery.
