Funeral services of F. C. Adams were held in the First Presbyterian church this afternoon at 2 o'clock with Dr. S. W. Cummings in charge and Rev. A. G. Fessenden of San Bernardino, assisting. Dr. Cummings paid splendid tribute to the memory of Mr. Adams who was a power of strength to the Christian forces of the community and especially in the Presbyterian Church.

Dr. Fessenden represented the Presbytery of Riverside in honor of Mr. Adams' service as Moderator of that body in since 1922.
The church organist, Frank Cummings, played a number of favorite hymns at the opening of the service. The church quartet sang most beautifully "Abide With Me" and "Hark, Hark, My Soul" and as the procession moved out of the church, the organ sounded strong and confidently, "How Firm a Foundation," the hymn which was a special favorite of the faithful elder. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. One noticed specially was a casket spray from the two sons, marked "Father" and was the only flowers placed on the casket.

In 1888 he was made elder of the Presbyterian Church of Vineland, N.J., where he was then living. He moved to Warsaw in NY in 1889 and soon after was made elder of the Presbyterian church there. A little later, he was made clerk of the session of this church which office he held until he came to California in 1905.
