Another of the old residents of Oak Creek was laid to rest in the Oak Creek Cemetery Saturday [24 Mar 1623]. This came by the death of Mrs. Olive Barrett, who had been residing with her son, William at the time of her death which resulted from the
after effects of the flu and her advanced age.

The bad roads prevented any of her old time acquaintances from attempting to attend the funeral while a misunderstanding of the time of the funeral resulted
in those who made the attempt not reaching the cemetery in time for the service. Pascal Lairds and Henry Stevens were those who made the effort.
