Winona; Lucille, now Mrs. Davis, of
Minneapolis; and Irwin of Rutledge,
who were all present at the funeral
There was a large attendance at
the funeral and among them were
many out of town friends who were
at one time residents of Rutledge,
and friends of his, and the many
and beautiful floral tributes bespoke
the esteem and favor in which the
deceased was held.

land of Duluth. Mrs. L. Smith pre-
sided at the organ. Mrs. G. P. Nelson
