FUNERAL HELD FOR MRS. ALICE WEBB AT MONROE SUNDAY

Impressive funeral services were held Sunday afternoon in the Monroe South Ward chapel for Mrs. Alice Lemmon Webb, 79, widow of John Freeman Webb and daughter of Allumbe and Lydia Applegate Lemmon, who died at Provo February 4. The services were carried out as Mrs. Webb had requested.

Many beautiful floral offerings and a large attendance were a testimony of love and respect for the family.

Speakers were Joseph A. Smith and Nephi Neilson. Lines of appreciation by Heber Swindle were read by his wife, as he was ill and could not attend the services.

Musical numbers were, "Tho Deepening Trails," and "There's a Beautiful Country," by the South ward choir, with Thomas Ransom in charge; a violin solo, "Vale," by Max Larson, accompanied by Leslie Sorenson; a solo, "Lay My Head Beneath the Pines," composed by Mrs. Webb and sung by Thomas Ransom with piano and violin accompaniment played by Mrs. Mildred Magleby and Miss Beth White; a quartet selection, "Bury Me Near the Old Home," by Lawrence and Clifford Jones, John Magleby and Thomas Ransom.

The invocation was by J.L. Magleby; the benediction by Glyde Webb. Joseph Jensen dedicated the grave, interment being in the Monroe Cemetery.

Pallbearers were Ray, John, Karl and Glyde Webb, and Lewis James.
The flowers were carried by members of the Relief Society.

Mrs. Webb was born February 28, 1856, in Nebraska City, Nebraska. When a small child she came to Utah with her parents, settling at Parowan, where she grew to womanhood and was married to Mr. Webb. Shortley after their marriage they moved to Monroe, where she lived until 1925, when she moved to Provo. Mr. Webb died in 1915.

Mrs. Webb was an active member of the church and served as president of the Monroe South Ward Relief Society. She also served as primary president for years and was loved by all who knew her.

Surviving are five sons and three daughters: John Webb, Monroe; Mrs. Allie W. Clark and June Webb, Provo; Mrs. N.C. Thurston and Melvin Webb, Idaho; Dr. Ray Webb, Chicago; Dell and Hamner Webb, San Francisco; and Karl Webb, Salt Lake City. Thirty grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.

Garn Clark and Mr. and Mrs. June Webb of Provo; Dr. Ray Webb of Chicago, Karl Webb of Salt Lake City, Mrs. Olive Diamond and two daughters of Springville, Mrs. Syrett and two daughters of Panguitch, and Mr. and Mrs. Roy Gleave of Annabella.
