Wednesday morning, from the Methodist church at this place, occurred the funeral of W. C. Boynton. The services were in charge of Rev. Guilbert, pastor, assisted by Rev. Holden. Burial was in the Strawberry Point cemetery. Wm. C. Boynton was born in Rodman, Jefferson Co., N.Y., Aug. 26th, 1843, and died in Winthrop, Iowa, Jan. 6th, 1908.
