Interment took place in Fairview cemetery. Reverend Paul. S, Wright spoke from the text: “Let not your hearts ¢ troubled; neither let them be afraid,” and went on to show how Christ was pre-eminently fitted for comforting those sorrow. He de- clared that it was surprising that Chridt. should have uttered those words on the eve of His own cruci- fixion and death and how He, with all his sorrows, should at that time have comforted others. How Christ fitted himself for the task of comforter was told by Rever- end Wright, who explained how, when He came on earth, He did not hold himself aloof from’ the other humans} Parshall,—Ted Shubert, proprictor but made himself, like us, with thelof a loeal oil station, was knocked exception of sin, of which He had/unconscious Wednesday evening none. when four youthful bandits entered Christ was able to comfort others|the station, stealing what cash was in the matter of death, said Reverend] on hand.
