BENJAMIN LAFAYETTE IVEY

   Benjamin Lafayette Ivey, 79, a resident of Thermopolis, Wyo., for the past 
fifty years and a former resident of Southampton County, died Friday night,

near Thermopolis, and he was a member of the Masonic lodge of that place.

number of nieces and nephews.

   Funeral services for Mr. Ivey were conducted at the grave in Newsoms
