THORNBERRY FUNERAL HELD TOMORROW

Harry THORNBERRY, who was stricken with appoplexy last Friday while at his work at Louden's, passed away last night at 9:55 at his home on East Grimes street without regaining consciousness.

Mr. THORNBERRY was the son of Mr. and Mrs. D.G. THORNBERRY and was born in this city January 8, 1883, and always made his home here. Besides his parents he is survived by two brothers: Clarence E. THORNBERRY of Waterloo, and Thomas C. THORNBERRY, of Waverly. On May 26, 1911, in this city he was united in marriage to Miss Patti FRAME, who is left to mourn his untimely end. To this union was born one child, Shreve.

He was a member of I.O.O.F, No. 629, Gilbert Encampment No.23, and Canton Bigelow No.6. He was a conscientious and upright young man and one who made many friends. The sympathy of the entire community will go out to the sorrowing family at this time.

The funeral services will be held from the late residence tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock in charge of Rev. W.W. Barkley. The Odd Fellows will also assist at the last rites. The remains will then be laid to rest in Evergreen Cemetery.
