Show GLENN CHILD IS BURIED AT WELLSVILLE Services held Monday inj Seventh ward for Vic- tim of tragic death at Blue Creek Farm. Little James Richard Genn, 7, son of Mrs. Arba Allen Glenn, whose life was snuffed out in a tragic manner at the Glenn farm Saturday morning, was tenderly laid at rest in the Wellsville cemetery Sunday afternoon following fol-lowing services in the Seventh . ward chapel. Hundreds gathered at the chapel to cf f er sympathy to Mrs. Glenn and family in their sorrow. The little child was playing in a grain bin. Howard Glenn, an uncle and Darwin Glenn, a broth-j er, were loading grain from the bin for the market. A truck had been driven under the spout at the lower side of the bin. As the spout was opened, the suction of the grain running into the truck drew- the lad, who was playing above, down into the spout and there he lodged. The wheat above slid down and covered the boy deeply in the wheat smothering out his life, while a score of men worked to remove the grain from the granry. B. M. Thompson, Hyrum mortician, morti-cian, took charge of the body and services were held Monday afternoon after-noon in the Seventh ward with Bishop George Raymond in charge. The choir under the direction of Prof. Calvin Fletcher rendered two numbers. Miss Lucile Hepworth of Kaysville played a violin solo and Mrs Olive Kofoed sang a solo. Prayers were offered by Bishop Clarence Aston of Gooding, Good-ing, Idaho, and Emil C. Dunn of the ward bishopric. Speakers were John Smith of Blue Creek, John Lowe of Franklin, Frank-lin, Bishop Bankhead of Wellsville, Bishop Joseph H. Watkins and Bishop Raymond. The grave at the Wellsville cemetery -was dedicated dedi-cated by Adam Glenn of Wellsville. |
