D. Alvord of that place, who died on Monday, Oct. 12, returned Saturday night and the remains were tenderly laid to rest in Riverside cemetery on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Alvord have the deepest sympathy of their many friends in Payette on account of their sad bereavement. From the Wyoming Press at Evanston is taken the following: Little Wells Deed Alvord has gone to join the angels' band above. He had lingered with typhoid fever until death came to relieve his sufferings, and his spirit took flight on Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock. For twenty-two months this lovely child has been the joy of the Alvord household, and his early death is a trying ordeal to the grief-stricken parents. It is hard to part with a flower so fair, but although he is dead to them in this life he will bloom still brighter in spheres of eternity. No one knew the little fellow but to love him, and the community condoles with the broken-hearted parents in this their great bereavement. Funeral services were conducted at the family home on Thursday afternoon, Rev. Y. C. Evans officiating, and the remains forwarded yesterday to Payette, Idaho, for burial. The child's grandfather, John McGlinchey, accompanied the body to its destination. Yesterday afternoon a fine baby girl arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alvord. This little one will add brightness to the home which has been darkened.
