Tait, which occurred yesterday morning. Filled with brain and brawn, the very picture of health and happiness, his taking away leaves a gap in the community which cannot be filled. The funeral occurred yesterday afternoon, the following friends of the young man acting as pallbearers: C.F. Harvard, F.L. Stacy, H.M. King, Jr., Claud Dart, V.C. Bourne, T.J. McCall. Rev. W.H. Chapman conducted the funeral and interment was in Oak Grove cemetery. The deceased is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J.B. Tait, and his sisters, Blanche and Catherine, and one brother, Lacey. “I KNEW HIM.” In all my newspaper experience and the consequent writing of hundreds of deaths, non has caused me such sorrow as Wentworth Tait. If this sturdy young American had a fault, I never saw or heard of it. He would often bring copy for the Bijou Theater to the News office; he always wanted to save me the trouble of taking it to the back, volunteering with that expression of earnestness I know was real; his face, his smile, showed reality.
