Lee Sutton's Funeral Held Last Saturday –

The funeral of Lee Sutton, who passed away on Wednesday, July 16 was held Saturday afternoon at 2:30 at the Methodist church in Wolbach and burial was made in the Wolbach cemetery. There was a large attendance at the funeral. Rev. Hamilton preached the sermon following an earnest and eloquent prayer by Dr. R. A. White. A beautiful vocal duet "Whispering Hope" was rendered by Mrs. J. C. Wilson and Mrs. E. H. Davis. The pall bearers were Cecil Sample, Darold Bussell, Harold Nielson, Archie Kinney, Glen McIntyre and Gerald Perry.

Out of town relatives who were here for the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Marrs of Redding, Iowa; Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sutton and children, Elmer, Floyd, Esther, Opal and Donna of Bonesteel, S. D., Mr. A. S. Hall of Armel, Colo.; Mr. Nate Hall and daughter, Irma of Sutherland, Nebraska. They all left for their respective homes Sunday.

OBITUARY – Lee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Tal C. Sutton, was born in Johnson county near Cook, Nebr., November 25, 1900, and departed this life July 16, 1930 at the age of 29 years, 7 months and 21 days.

He moved with his parents to Wolbach when a boy four years old and lived here since that time. He attended school in Wolbach and graduated from the high school here. He has not been well since he was fourteen and for the last nine and one half years he has been confined to his wheel chair. During all the years of his affliction, he bore his suffering without any complaint. He had a smile and a word of good cheer for everyone.

Lee became a member of the Methodist church in Wolbach in 1914. He leaves to mourn his loss, his father and mother, one sister, Vera and one brother Ralph; also many other relatives and a host of friends.

"Soldier of God, well done! Thy glorious warfare's past; The battle's fought, the race is run and thou art crowned at last."

Card of Thanks – So many were the tributes of sympathy and helpfulness paid to us on the occasion of our recent great bereavement in the death of our beloved son and brother, that we wish to present this expression of our thankfulness. We wish especially to thank our kind neighbors and friends, the Oddfellow lodge, the Rebekahs and the Royal Neighbors. We deeply appreciated the music rendered by the choir and especially the duet by Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Davis, and are grateful for the prayers and words of comfort spoken by the ministers.
Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Sutton and family.
