The funeral for Corporal Gordon Owen as largely attended this afternoon.  The
Knights Templar, Blue lodge of the Masons attended in a body.  The floral
offerings were many and beautiful and one piece consisted of flowers made into
an American flag.  The bearers were Alfred R. Locke, F.O. Eldred, Fred Buck, Leo
Bull, Alex Minty and Herb Robb.  On account of the prevailing influenza the body
was not taken inside the church but left outside near the door while the
services were being held.  Rev. E.E. Branch officiated and called attention to
the gold star placed upon the service flag of the church for him.
