Impressive Funeral Service at the University in Honor of Albert I. Anderson
Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, parents of the late Albert I. Anderson, arrived in the city to-day at noon from California, and final arrangements for the burial services were complete late this afternoon. The body will be conveyed by auto-hearse to the Anderson home, nine miles southeast of Troy to-morrow morning and special services will be held in the afternoon at 2 o’clock at the home. Burial will take place in a rural burying ground, known as the Dry Creek Cemetery.
Funeral services for the late Albert I. (Andy) Anderson, a member of the class of 1917 of the University of Idaho, who met death Saturday in an automobile accident while driving to the city from the university campus, were held this morning at 9:30 o’clock at the university auditorium where a large number of students, members of the university faculty, and friends of the Anderson family gathered to join in the last tributes of love and respect to the departed young man and to show sympathy to the members of his family.
Music and Flowers
The casket, banked with lovely flowers, was carried by 5 members of Mr. Anderson’s fraternity, Earl Hall, Percy Messinger, Chas. Reeder, E.B. Smith, Oscar Nelson and Ralph Largent. A quartet, composed of Dean Eldridge, Prof. Lewis, Dr. Boyd, and Richard Cannon furnished music, and the chapel organ was presided over by Mrs. Philip Soulen.
Many Kind Words
E.J. Iddings, dean of the agricultural college of the university, from which Mr. Anderson was granted a degree last Friday morning, gave a brief sketch of the seven years of the life of Mr. Anderson which had been spent in the shadow of the University of Idaho’s walls. He eulogized the college life of the deceased young man, praising his earnestness, kindliness and ambitious longings. Only an hour before the fateful accident he sat in the office of Dean Iddings and expressed his happiness at completing one epoch of his life, and being ready to advance along the lines of his chosen profession. Rev. Robert Warner of the Methodist church, who conducted the service, dwelt on the frailty of life and spiritual need of each hour.
Body Lies in State
At the close of the service, the body lay in the main corridor of the administration building, where it was viewed by fellow students and friends. Among the many beautiful floral tributes was a panel of pink roses and white carnations from Mr. Anderson’s fraternity, Zeta Chi Alpha; a solid wreath of white carnations and pink roses from the faculty of the agricultural college; a spray of pink carnations from Kappa Kappa Gamma; and a spray of carnations from Gamma Phi Beta; besides the many wreaths and sprays from individuals.
Await Arrival of Parents
As the parents of the young man have not yet reached Moscow from California, the body will be taken to the old home of the Anderson’s at Troy, where services in the Swedish language will be conducted some time tomorrow, when it is expected the parents will arrive. A delegation from the agricultural college will go to Troy tomorrow to attend the burial services. It will include Professors C.C. Vincent, Pren Moore, G.S. Rae, R.E. Neidig, P.P. Peterson, E.W. Hamilton, W.A. Gardne,J.S. Jones, E.J. Eddigs, Mrs. Iddings, Mrs. Person and Miss Edith Wardwell. The fraternity brothers of the deceased will also act as pallbearers the Troy Service.
