Fry, which occured at the home in Jerome,last Friday morning,December 15th,1922. Mr.Fry had been ill for some time of broncular pnemonia,and although he had rallied several times during the illness his advanced years were against him. Mr. Fry was born at Jackson,Ohio,February 15 1846, and hence was almost 77 years old at the time of his death. His father was captain of Company I,21st Ohio Volunteers,in the Civil War and this son,then a boy,was attached to his father's company as civilian driver of an ambulance for two years, thus seeing much service at the front. Soon after the war the family removed to Missouri,where Mr.Fry resided until four years ago when he removed to Jerome,joing several sons by a former marriage who resided here. There were six children as a result of the first marriage,five boys and one girl. The mother of these children died about twenty years ago,Mr.Fry later again marrying and the second wife with five children being residents of Jerome. All of the children are living and all except two were present at the father's death and funeral. The funeral was held at the late home last Saturday afternoon. The deceased was a consistent member of the Methodist church of Jerome,and the funeral services were conducted by Rev.H.G.McCallister;now of Gooding,former pastor of the church. Mr.Fry was a good citizen of unbending integrity and intense patriotism.His cheerful disposition and uniformily good nature earned him the respect and friendship of all acquaintances.
