Thomas will preach the funeral discourse, the interment will be in Highland Park.

------------

The funeral service for Mrs. Eleanor Fanning was attended at St. John’s
Episcopal church this morning, many mourners being present.  There were present
from out of the city: Mrs. Emaline McCall of Vernon, a sister; Walter Johnson of
Battle Creek, a brother; Mrs. Emma Dafrees, Miss Libbie Whitney, Miss Anna
Fanning, all of Chicago and all nieces; Charles Fanning and Charles Whitney of
Chicago, and Seymour Johnson of Battle Creek, nephews; Mrs. William Tebbell of
Smyrna, and Mrs. Marcy of Lyons, friends.

The floral tributes were many and very nice.  The bearers were from the
membership of the A.O.U.W.:  F. ???tedman, W.S. Bouk, J.T. Webber, and Abraham
Engelman.

The funeral discourse by Rev. Dr. Thomas was full of tender sympathy and rich
promise, and the music was in full keeping with the simplicity of the service. 
The remains were given a resting place in Highland Park.
