OBITUARY
 
William F. Strother was born in the state of Kentucky July 17, 1876, and died 
at the Veterans' Hospital in Boise March 31, 1927, at the age of 50 years, 8 
months and 19 days.
 
He first came to Payette about 21 years ago and engaged in the jewelry and 
optical business.  Later he worked in Salt Lake City for several years and a 
few years ago returned to Payette to continue his old business.  He was 
married May 23, 1922, to Edna Bean, of Cascade, Idaho, and the bereaved wife 
and two sisters, Mrs. Louisa Smith, of Emmett, and Mrs. Robert Murray, of 
Ontario, Oregon, and one brother, Luther Strother, of Ontario, survive him.
 
Mr. Strother was a Spanish-American war veteran, having served with 
distinction as a corporal in Company B, Signal Corps.  He was also a member in 
good standing in the I.O.O.F. and Masonic ledges.
 
Funeral services were held in the Veteran Hospital at Boise Sunday afternoon 
and were conducted by the Spanish-American veterans.  Interment took place at 
Morris Hill cemetery at Boise.
 
Mr. Strother had been in very poor health for several years, his trouble being 
pernicious anemia and although he received every possible attention he grew 
weaker as the months passed and finally became incapacitated for his work and 
went to the hospital where death ensued.  He was at all times a good citizen, 
and when at himself was a man of more than ordinary ability and a great 
reader.  His death is deeply deplored by all, and our sympathy goes out to 
those left to mourn.
