LAID TO REST

Impressive Funeral Services
Over the Late Anton J. Lubbe.

The funeral services over the late Anton J. Lubbe were held at St. John's Catholic Church at Tenth and Spruce this morning. The deceased was one of the pioneers in establishing the Orphans' and Old Folks Homes on the prairie, and was much beloved by the people of the parish. Solemn high mass was conducted by Rev. Father Joseph Still, assisted by Fathers Andrew and Locher. A choir of over 100 youthful voices chanted a requiem and the services were elaborate, stately and impressive. Many handsome floral tributes were sent to the house by friends of the deceased.

The pall bearers were: H. B. Menke, J. Henry Tushaus, Henry Ording, Stephen Damhorst, John P. Menke, J. H. Tenk, Joseph J. Brockschmidt and H. Lammers. The procession to the grave was over half a mile long and was one of the most imposing funeral corteges recently seen in Quincy. The remains were interred in St. Boniface cemetery.
