H. and Adaline Eaton, was born September 21, 1903, at Emerson, la. He removed with his parents to Clearwater, Nob., and then to Pacific Junction ,and then to Emerson, in 1918. Here he completed his education, graduating with the class of 1921. Since that time he has been farming with his father. Lawrence was of a happy disposilion and under all circumstances his smile was like sunshine to those around him. He was a favorite with the young people and will be greatly missed from their gatherings. He became a member of the Baptist church at the age of eleven, taking active part in the choir and B. Y. P. U., also acting as secretary of the Sunday school for several years. He was a good Bible student and his thoughtful observance of all church obligations gave proof that he heeded the truths he read. He was an enthusiastic member of the Emerson band, playing tenor saxophone. There is a feeling of deeper sadness when one as young as Lawrence is called away in life's morning. There is this consolation, that none were better prepared for the final summons than he was. Funeral services for all three of the victims of Sunday's tragedy at Emerson were held at the Baptist church on Tuesday afternoon. The services were in charge, of the pastor, Rev. W. H. Stickel, assisted by Rev. J. E. Wilkins of Malvern and former Emerson pastor. Music for the occasion was furnished by a Glenwood quartet, Dr. and Mrs. W. M. Plimpton and Mr. and Mrs. E. R.

For the son, Horace Greenwood, Paul Richardson, Charles Greenwood, Harold Oliver, John Confer, Glen Confer.
