Ripley news from THE PLYMOUTH ADVERTISER (Plymouth, Richland Co., Ohio) 07 November 1914 Volume 61, No. 51 Mr. HUFF, of Crestline, was a guest of his father-in-law, Wednesday. Rev. E.S. TOMPKINS of Norwalk, assisted at the obsequies of our late townsman, L.D. CRUM. Mr. and Mrs. HUBBARD ST. JOHN of Greenwich, were last Sunday guests of J. ALLEN and wife. We hear that F.P. BOARDMAN and wife will spend the coming winter in southern climes, as a benefit to the health of F.P. J.F. YOUNG of Los Angeles, California, a fast line passenger conductor running between Chicago and Los Angeles, was a recent guest of his sister, Mrs. FANNIE BARKER. EARL RIDDLE, wife and daughter, S.N. DUFFY and wife, of Richmond Township, and J.E. DAWSON and wife of Chicago Junction, were in attendance at the L.D. CRUM funeral, last Wednesday. C.H. SILLIMAN was caught in a wreck in New Haven about four weeks ago and while having a bad bruise on the fleshy part of the hip, in which an incision was made for removing clotted blood, he is improving nicely, is in good spirits and in splendid mood for a good visit with all who call. There was no singing at the funeral of L.D. CRUM. While we have always been moved by the sentiment brought forth in the sacred songs on such occasions, yet the profuseness of the splendid passages of scripture read and touching prayer and inspiring sermon and talk was probably satisfying to all. ------------------------------------------- Transcribed and submitted by Amy E.
