Little River Monitor
OBITUARY
Asa, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. Alva Crandall, who live two miles north of Little River, passed away Thursday, July 31, about noon. He was six years and five days old when he died. The little fellow took sick about a month ago. At times he seemed to be better, only though to get worse again. Skilled physicians and a trained nurse joined the anxious family in a brave struggle to save his life, but notwithstanding all that was done he went away.
The funeral service was held Friday afternoon at the Methodist church where a large congregation was present. The sermon was preached by Rev. George Watts, using for a text II Samuel 12. 23. Beautiful and appropriate music was rendered by the choir. The floral offerings were many, and very pretty. The pall bearers were four small boys who tenderly performed their sad duties. At the conclusion of the service at the church the remains were taken to Bean cemetery for burial. Using the committal service of the church the body was deposited in the grave to await the coming of the resurrection morning.
