Cedar Bethel, March 70 Mr. Bunard Littrel died at his home Sunday afternoon, march 5, 1899, aged 43 years, 7 months and 16 days. Bunard, as he was familiarly known by all his friends, was a man who, in sickness or trouble, was known by his many acts of kindness. As a son to his loving mother, gone before, and to his aged father he was all that a dutiful son could be. His sickness was of very short duration. He had typhoid fever and was sick ten days. In December, 1877, he was married to Miss Etta Chapman, near Grandview. He leaves a wife and eight children, five boys and three girls, the oldest being 21 and the youngest, Pat three years old. He also leaves an aged father and two brothers, John and Albert. John lives near Letts and Albert lives in Montana. Funeral services were held at Cedar Bethel at 10 o'clock this morning. It was a very large funeral, as Mr. Littrel was one our best know and most substantial men.
