DEATH OF HENRY ASMUSSEN

The residents of Payette were shocked beyond measure to learn that Henry 
Asmussen died at the hospital in Boise on Friday afternoon as a result of 
injuries sustained in the wreck at Arcadia on Wednesday of last week. When 
first taken to Boise it was not thought his injuries would result fatally but 
examination proved that while in the steam filled car he had inhaled 
sufficient hot steam as to make his recovery doubtful. On Friday a telephone 
call was sent to Mrs. Asmussen and she went at once to Boise to be with her 
husband. He passed away about four o’clock that afternoon after having 
patiently suffered intense pain from his external and internal injuries. The 
remains were brought to Payette Saturday and on Wednesday services were 
conducted at the Sweedish Lutheran church by Rev. Tester of Ogden and 
interment was made in the Riverside cemetery. The large crowd attending the 
services and the beautiful floral offerings were mute testimony of the esteem 
in which the deceased was held. To know Henry Asmussen was to respect him. 
Quiet by nature he was thought by some to be unapproachable but beneath that 
quiet exterior was a sterling integrity and cordial disposition that won for 
him the friendship of all who came in social or business contact with him.
