Fred Cook Died Wednesday Evening

Word was received here Wednesday evening of the death of Fred Cook at a hospital in Salt Lake City where he was taken about two weeks ago to receive medical treatment. His wife accompanied him to Salt Lake City and has been with him throughout his illness.

When word was received over the phone that he had passed away it came as a shock to relatives and friends here as his daughter had just received a letter stating that he was getting better and would be able to come home in about a week.

Mr. Cook was formerly connected with the Consolidated Wagon & Machine company and is well known in this section.

The deceased is survived by his widow and the following children: Mrs. Alice Zabriskie, Junction; Mrs. Myrtle Riley, Salt Lake City; Ivo D. Cook, McGill, Nevada, and Mrs. Vernessa Salisbury and Durwed Cook of our city.

No details have been received and funeral services are not yet arranged but a complete report will be given in our next issue.

Frederick Wm. Cook Laid to Final Rest
Funeral services for Frederick William Cook, who died Wednesday at the LDS hospital in Salt Lake City, were held in the First ward chapel Sunday afternoon, Bishop F.M. Ogden officiating.

After the opening song by he choir, J. Milton Poulson offered the invocation. Musical numbers by the choir included "Rock of Ages," and "O My Father." A duet, "Unanswered Yet," was sung by Terrah Black and Alfred Ward, and "My Father Knows" by the choir with John W. Ward as soloist.

The speakers were Peter Nielson, Bishop Penny, formerly of Johns Valley, now of Joseph, and Joseph Oden, all of whom spoke with fervor of his honesty, integrity and friendliness. Mr. Nielson related the story of Job's trials, with reference to the resurrection. After the closing song, J.F. Ogden pronounced the benediction.

A profusion of beautiful floral offerings docked the bier and a long cortege followed the remains to the city cemetery where the grave was dedicated by Terrah Black.

Lyman Leavitt, Dee Black, Oneal Hansen, Deloy Ence, Earl Madsen and Muriel Ainsworth acted as pall bearers.
