R. Spears, one of the most noble and trué¢ of our citizens, were laid to rest in beautiful St. Marys cemetery; one who from his earliest mlnhnn has . occupied af warm place ‘in_the hearts of every resident of the Red Lake reservation. He was a loyal and patriotic citizen, ever ready to assume his share' of the burdens of life and giving with a free | hand to the needy.. He never knew what it’ was to say no to the poor or to fail to lend a helping hand to the sick or weary along life’s high- way. He stored the harvest of his good deeds in)that granary which ver- min attack not, nor do_thieyes break through it and steal, in the heart of the human brotherhood. To those who knew his generous soul, his un- selfish nature, his kind words and kinder deeds, there ‘can be naught save regret that a greater temporal glory was not his, consoled though they must he with the reflection that for such as he, so pre-eminently was, a_harbinger of charity, that greatest of virtue, there is beyond a peaceful home with God in the valley of the blessed. $ William R. Spears was born at White Earth, Minn., in the year 1860, was married to Julia A. Morrison in 1889, located 'at’ Red/ Lake Indian Agency in the year 1887, where he has resided ever since. ' He leaves to mourn his ' loss, his wife, Julia "A. Spears, and_five, children, .Cordelia, Alice, Peter and Wm, R, Spears, Jr., and Mrs. Irene Needham, and friends that are only numbered by those with whom ‘he’¢came’ in contact.
