W. Smith returned Sunday from Claude, Texas where he attended the funeral of his son W. Y. Smith, who was murdered there June 23rd. A farmer business partner of the young man is alleged to have done the shooting and is waiting trial under a $15,000 bond. The raising of $500 among the business men of the town to aid in prosecuting the suspected man, and the wonderful floral decorations at the funeral showed with what esteem Mr. Smith was regarded by his fellow townsmen. He was to have been married soon.
