The funeral services were conducted by the United Brethren minister from Day, Kan., interment taking place at two o'clock Monday following, in the Chepstow cemetery. We knew the late Mr. Lidy well, and can say with all frankness that he was a man of sterling Christian virtues, with an iron will and strong purpose to do the right. He lived as he preached, and lived a long and useful life, full of good faith in Him who doeth all things well. He leaves a wife, one son, six daughters, and a large number of relatives and friends to mourn his loss.--Linn Digest. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/washington/obits/l/lidy1110ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.9 Kb
