Charles A. Griffin, whose serious illness was mentioned in last week's paper, died in the Montevideo hospital [April 30, 1913] and his remains were brought here for burial on Saturday last. Funeral services were held in Glyndon church on the afternoon of the Sabbath and were very largely attended by friends of the family, from near the family home on route No. 1 and the village also.
Rev. Sapp of the Christian Church of Fargo was the officiating minister and preached a touching sermon, after which the remains were carried to Riverside cemetery and tenderly laid away.
The young man was in his 26th year only, having been born in 1887 in Butler County, Iowa, and coming to this neighborhood with his parents some time ago. He was popular with all and had a host of friends who knew him best as a good worker and one interested in the Christian work also.
Besides his parents left to mourn their great loss, are his grandparents, four brothers and two sisters still resident in this vicinity. (Red River Valley News, Glyndon, MN, May 9, 1913)
