The remains were interred in the Dempsey cemeterry, Tuesday afternoon. Rev. E.E. Grimes officiating. A large concouse of friends and relatives assembled at the cemeetery for the service. Mr. Beierschmitt was a native of Germany, but emigrated to this country in 1886. He was married in New York City to Miss Carolinee Kisslling and soon after his marriage came to Oklahoma and settled on the east side. In 1901 he came to Roger Mills county and filed on a homestead adjoining the presrent home, living here until his death. He was an industrious citizen and numbers of times had very materially assisted his friends. While living in East Oklahoma he and his wife untied with the Chrstian Church which relation they have maintainedd ever since. We extend our sympathies to the stricken family in this hour of sadness.
