THREE HEROES LAID TO THEIR FINAL
REST SUNDAY

Wood was practically deserted last
Sunday as nearly every body who could
get away went to Winner and Colome
to attend the military funerals of. Les
ter w. Kemp who was buried at Col
ONE, at ten o'clock on that day, and
Harold E. Koenig who was buried at
Winner at two o'clock. The funera
at Winner was double one, for at the
same time Earl Bridgeman, of Witten
was also laid to his fpal rest in the
Winner Cemetery.
The Koenig and Bridgeman funeral
services were held at the Winner
Theater, and the theater proved to be
entirely too small to hold the great out
pouring OF people who had assembled
to pay their respects to these boys
who had so gal sntly given up their
lives On the field of battle on foreign
soil
The funeral services were in charge
of the American Legion, and they
were most impressive. Members OF
the Colome, Winner, Witt-n and Wood
Posts were in attendance, and there
must have been at least $50 ex- service
men in line, including the army and
navy branches of the service. There
vas also one French soldier in uni.
form.
The funeral service at Winner was
conducted by Rev. Roberts of Dallas.
The music was furnished by choir
composed of Witten and Wood people
The floral tributes of sympathising
friends were beautiful.
We are indeed sorry that We do not
possess the proper data to write an
obituary of either Lester Kemp tr
Ear! BridSeman. lester Kemp was
the only son OF Mrs. Agnes Kemp
who has homestead in Rosebud Val
ley north of Wood aud be enlisted
from Mellette county. Earl Bridge
man is the son OF w. +. Bridgeman of
Witten and he enlisted from rripp
comfy. They were in the thickest Of
the fight. Their bodies we're laid TO
their final rest with full military
honors. These funerals were most
impressive.
HAROLD e. KoENIa
Harold E. Koenig was torn at
earns, Nebraska, November 18th 1895
and he was the only son Of Mcs. j. A.
Burns Of this city. When fifteen years
of age he moved to Lsmro, Tripp
county, South Dakots with his parents
and resided there until the fall of 1917
when he moved to Wood, South Da-
kota. On June 5.h, 1917, he register
ed for the draft at Winner, S D., and
on April 18th, 1918, he was called to
the colors, and left for Camp Funston;
Kansas where he became member of
Company G 34l NJ. &. B. Eighty
Ninth Division on April 3Otb, 1913.
He was killed in action on October "a,
1913, during the cleaning OF Banthe-
Vile Woods in the Argonne. He was
aged ~ years. IL months and 9 days
a. the time OF his death. He was well
known both in Tripp and Mellette
counties, and has host OF friends
who mourn his death. He died fight
ing for his country and made the su-
preme sacrifice for the cause Of liberty.
