Prominent Arlington Man Dead.
The funeral of C. E. Chapin, one of the former prominent citizens of Creek township, was held Friday, February 28, and was largely attended. The services were conducted by the Masons, of which order Mr. Chapin was an honored member. The members of Arlington Lodge No. 20 together with visiting Brethren formed at Masonic hall at 1:30. School was dismissed and pupils formed in line behind the Masons and in this order proceeded to the home of the deceased, one mile south of Arlington where a short but impressive sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. Kiper after which the remains were laid to rest in the Chapin Cemetery with all the honors of the Masonic Fraternity.
MR. Chapin was born August 1, 1865, in Good Hope, Ill., moved with his parents to Ft. Worth, Texas, in 1875 later to the Indian Territory and to Oklahoma at time of opening of territory.
He leaves a wife and three children, five brothers and two sisters to mourn his death. Mr. Chapin was one of the most highly respected citizens of the community and all sympathize with the sorrowing ones.
