Funeral of A.C. Bangs
A throng of friends who have held A.C. Bangs in high esteem during the many years he has been a valuable resident of Winfield assembled at the home on East Twelfth avenue yesterday afternoon to pay their last respects and revere his memory. Mr. Bangs sudden demise on Oct. 6 came as a distinct shock to Winfield.
Amid a room filled with loving floral emblems, Miss Helen Ballein a favorite with Mr. Bangs since girlhood played softly Chopin's nocturne E 6 major. Miss Ballein accompanied Miss Winner as she sang "No Night There."
Rev. George St. Tyner, rector of the Grace Episcopal church of which Mr. Bangs had been a life member spoke in highest regard of the deceased. He chose his text, one chosen by the family, II Timothy, chapter IV, seventh verse "I have fought a good fight. I have finished my course, I have kept the faith."
Nothing is so satisfying to the human heart, nothing which so calms the consceince and rests a weary soul as to finish a life of useful years and say "I have fought a good fight."
He was born in Boston, Mass. Dec. 26, 1860 and came to Winfield in 1876. His life in our city has been very active for the welfare of the community. His altruism has been one of his greatest ualities.
The active pall bearers were members of the Masonic order, Frank Balleia, Harry Plagmann, Anthony Snyder, Dick Richardson, George Rembaugh and Josh Wallace. The Knights Templars acted as escorts.
The three daughters, Mrs. Phyllis Ross of Tulsa, Mrs. Ruth Wesserly of Kansas City and Mrs. Madge Gault of Chicago were present to comfort their mother during this sorrowful bereavement.
