Death of Lee Lutz.
The death of Lee Lutz, of this city, occurred last Sunday, at the home of his sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Kirkpatrick, in Atchinson, Kan., having gone south last fall on account of failing health. The remains arrived in Marion Monday morning, being accompanied by Mrs. Kirkpatrick and Mr. and Mrs. B.F. Bulkley, of Marion, who had been called to Atchinson over a week before, on account of the serious illness of the deceased.
The funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bulkley, and was conducted by Rev. R. L. Campbell, pastor of the Presbyterian church. The music was furnished by Mr. and Mrs. W.B. Sebern, Miss Edith Gherke and J.M. Thompson. The pall-bearers were C.R. Fairefild[sic], Dr. L.C. Dow, E.E. Parsons, C.N. Owen, U.G. Byerly and M.W. Courtney. There were many beautiful floral offerings, among them being a floral ladder from the D.R. Kinley Hook and Ladder Co., of which the deceased was a member, and a boquet[sci] of roses from the Mentzer Hose company, the deceased having assissted[sic] them many times in drills. The deceased was also a member of the Knights of Pythias order, holding his membership at Black Diamond, Wash., where he was initiated about three years ago.

Parsons, G.M. of R. and C. of the Rathbone sisters, to purchase for them a floral piece, but the telegram was not received till Wednesday morning.
