The funeral service was held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Rittenhouse, of Ontario, of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Mr. Burgess saw hard service in the war of the sixties, and while not a member of the G. A. R. was an honored "old soldier" and citizen. Another old comrade has joined the "silent majority" in the country where they know no wars "nor rumors of war." "They are falling from the ranks one by one."
