Last Sunday morning, after a brief illness, occurred the death of Frankie Yule, the young grandson and companion of Mrs. Yule. He was about twelve years of age and had always lived with his grandmother. Every one for miles around knew him, as he was on the road much of the time as a stock driver for J. A. Strang and Chas. Brown, who had great confidence in him. All duties assigned him were most faithfully and punctually performed, and he was a most trusty messenger. The funeral service was held on Tuesday afternoon at the church. Six of the classmates of the deceased were pall-bearers, and the pupils of the Dodge School, where he had attended, were present in a body. The remarks by Pastor Harris were very appropriate, emphasizing the trusty faithful life of the manly lad. The church was filled with sympathizing friends and relatives. The heartfelt sympathy of the community is extended to the bereaved ones.
