low. This is always held on the
night before the Cony grid warriors
meet their old time opponents from
Gardiner, and this year the cid Cony
spirit will be exuded by the team
even more than Is usual as the coach
himself Is a former Cony boy ana
has instilled in his makeup that
same desire to trim Gardiner that
will animate his men.

of the Cony Night program has been
busy preparing one which Will be OF
special interest and will generate
plenty of kick, and they believe that

SIDNEY
Frank S. Cowan

The funeral Of Frank S. Cowan
occurred Saturday. Oct. 3lst, at the
home in Sidney. The services were
conducted by Rev. w. p. Holman
of Bath, who was his pastor for--six
years up to last spring, and Rev.
J. L. Pinkerton Of Oakland and Sid
ney, the present pastor.
There was a large attendance Of
relatives and friends and the beau
tiful floral pieces bore evidence OF
the love and esteem in which the
deceased was held. The bearers
were F. Eugene Cowan, Harold Ben
son, Clarence Bacon and Ernest
Lewis. Enterment was in the Cowan
cemetery.
The death Of Mr.. Cowan was the
first among the five children of Mar
cellus and Mary Woodcock Cowan,
all of whom were over seventy years
of age. His wife, Mrs. Clara Swift
Cowan, died about two years ago,
but he is survived by one son, F.
Eugene Cowan. with whom he re-
sided; two daughters, Mrs. Clarence
Bacon and Mrs. Harold Benson; two
brothers, Charles Cowan and Man.
SON Cowan; two sisters, Mrs. Charles
Goodhue and Mrs. Alice Manter: al
so two half sisters, Miss Ida Cowan
and Mrs. Arthur Hersum, besides
eight grandchildren. Mr.. Cowan's
death deserves more than passing
comment. He was one of Sidney's
oldest citizens and was born in that
town February p, 1851, and lived
and died on the Pond road, less than
a mile from his birthplace.
Mr.. Cowan was the personihcation
of kindness. integrity, and upright
ness always taking a. keen interest
in all matters pertaining to the best
interests of the community. His
was the highest type of loyal Christ
ian manhood, loyal to home, COM
munity, state and church. Especi-
ally in the latter his presence and
kindly cordial greeting will be sadly
missed.
