The remains of the late Mr. W. H. Chappell, senior, who passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Hicks, in Edmonton, on Sunday, were laid to rest Wednesday afternoon, following service held in the United church by Rev. R. Upton. The choir, under the leadership of Mrs. Upton, upon request from the family, sand "The Old Rugged Cross." The church was filled to capacity with sorrowing friends. The late Mr. Chappell was one of the prime movers of what is now known at the Bellevue and District Horticultural, Industrial and Poultry Society. Left to mourn his passing are two daughters, Emily (Mrs. Howard Martin) Redditch, England; Edith (Mrs. Arthur Hicks) Edmonton; and two sons, William H. Chappell, of Blairmore, and Fred J. Chappell, of Wetaskiwin; also a large number of grandchildren. With the bereaved we join in sympathy. The late Mr. Chappell was born in Barnsley, Yorkshire, England, eighty-one years ago February 17th. He came to Bellevue on May 31st, 1906, just thirty years prior to his demise, and resided here continually until August of 1930, when he left to visit Wetaskiwin and Edmonton. He was predeceased by his wife in 1919, and eldest daughter, Mrs. Hallworth, in January of 1922.
