Mr. Pike was twice married. His first wife, who was Miss Maude (sic) Hinamon of Jasper, has been dead some years. The second wife, who survives, was Miss Annalee Mashburn of Kansas City. They were married eight years ago.
Mr. Pike was a local employee of the express company for many years and was also a member of the Light Guard Band in the late eighties and early nineties. He was the son of Ed Pike, a well known private detective and peace officer.
The wife and the son Fred and Mrs. Pike's brother, John Mashburn, are expected to accompany the body from Kansas City. Possibly the son from Denver also will accompany them.
