Sentinel-Standard - Wednesday, May 25, 1926

A large number of friends and relatives, including the orders of the u Klux 
Klan and the Rebekahs gathered at the home of Perry Mickel Tuesday afternoon 
for the funeral services of Mrs. Mickel. (illegible word) were impressively sad 
as Mrs. Mickel's mother, Mrs. Anna Austin, a woman nearly 90 years of age, took 
the last look at the form of her daughter, whom she had walked a long way 
nearly every day during the 14 months of illness to see. The Rebekahs formed an 
aisle for the funeral group at the home and the Ku Klux Klan at the grave, the 
later giving their burial service. Rev. H.G. Hurrell preached the sermon at the 
house and gave the burial prayer. Mrs. R.A. Colwell and Mrs. Thane Benedict 
sang, "Under the Wing" and "No Night There". Miss Lillian Ashdown accompanied 
them on the organ. The bearers were Joseph Loper, Archie Anderson, Ted Bloomer, 
Clyde Markham, William Wingrove, and Eldon Willard. Burial took place in 
Highland Park cemetery.
