The funeral of Stacy Grant, who died of consumption on last Saturday, was held at the M. E. church Sunday afternoon, there being a large concourse of people present. The services were impressive, the choir rendering appropriate songs, and the pastor, Rev. Bretts, preaching a thoughtful discourse from Rev. 14:13. After the sermon and the singing of the beautiful hymn, "Asleep in Jesus," the remains were removed to the cemetery, followed by most of the audience, and laid to rest in the family lot by the side of a father and sister (Jennie). The pallbearers were Sanfred Peterson, Guy Ford, Earl Winne, Wallie Fowler, Floyd Sill and Elmer Mose. The deceased was but seventeen years old, but had been sick for a long time. His widowed mother and the rest of the family have the sympathy of a host of friends. They seemed to feel their loss keenly, but no doubt realized that "thine is still a blessed sleep, from which none ever wake to weep."
