LEONARD WRIGHT DIES AT FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA 

On receiving intelligence last Thursday morning of the serious illness of her 
son Leonard at Fargo, North Dakota, Mrs. Mary Wright immediately started for 
that city, but before her arrival, Leonard died. Mournfully she brought his 
body back to his boyhood home, arriving Saturday night. On Sunday afternoon 
the funeral services were held at the Baptist church, a great congregation 
attending. Leonard was born July 3, 1870, and joined the Baptist church March 
8, 1889. Rev. George Kline, the pastor, preached the sermon. The interment was 
in the Bridgeport cemetery. Profound sympathy is felt for the widowed mother 
and the survivng brothers and sisters in their sudden and sore bereavement. 
Leonard had been ill with typhoid pneumonia only about five days. Although far 
away from home, he had the precious presence of Christ his redeemer. The 
bereaved share in the love of that same ever present and comforting friend.
