Burt, Taunton, N.Y.; thirteen grandchildren and several nieces and nephews..
A large gathering of friend and relatives paid their last respects to his memory by attending the funeral held Tuesday, Nov. 15th at the home. The Rev. Harry Palmeter officiated with Hartwell of Tully in charge. The floral tributes were many and extremely beautiful, attesting the esteem in which the deceased was held by his friends and neighbors.
