Wiley of Waterloo and Mrs. L. J. White of Winterset. He also leaves nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren.

Funeral services were held last Friday from Anderson's home for funerals, in charge of the Rev. W. R. Watkins, pastor of the Winterset Church of Christ. Burial was made in the Winterset cemetery.
