B. Williams The funeral of J. B. Williams took place Sunday afternoon at 8 o'clock under the auspices of Lodge No. 19 I.O.O.F. The funeral services were held at the family residence, the Rev. Samuel Unsworth of the Episcopal Church speaking the words of sympathy and condolence which mean so much to those who are grief stricken by the death of a loved one. At the conclusion of the services the procession formed and moved toward the Odd Fellows Cemetery, where the earthly remains of this honored, esteemed and beloved citizen were gently laid into their last resting place. Over sixty carriages formed the funeral train that did honor to the dead, a fitting tribute to the high place he held in the hearts of the people of Reno.
