Johnston were held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Waggener & Campbell chapel by Rev. L. M. Darnell of the Baptist church. Beautiful floral tributes were banked around the casket and friends filled the chapel and adjoining rooms. During the service Clide Carr sang three solo selections accompanied by Mrs. Carr. Friends acting as pallbearers were L. A. Beeman, T. Neville, John Burns, James Burns, William Michaels and J. A. Brinkerhoff. Interment was made in the Fairview Cemetery. Reuben S. Johnston, son of Samuel and Pauline Johnston, was born in Fayette, Pennsylvania, June 15, 1865, and emigrated to Prairie City, Illinois with his parents in 1865 and from Illinois to McDonaugh County, Nebraska, in 1874 where his father died, leaving his mother with eight small children. The family resided in Nebraska until 1879 when his mother brought the family by ox team across the plains to East Gallatin, near Bozeman, arriving there July 26, 1879. Six years later at the age of 19, Reuben Johnston, with his older brother LeRoy Johnston, emigrated by team to the Flathead Valley and located on homesteads in 1884 about eight miles northwest of what is now Kalispell. Two years later he returned to Gallatin and was married to Miss Floy Thompson, and together they returned to their homestead and had lived in this vicinity until about four years ago when ill health forced him to retire from farming and they moved to Columbia Falls, where he passed away Sunday, December 31, 1939 at the age of 74 years. He leaves his widow, Floy Johnston, seven children; Roy R. of Kalispell; Minnie Howell, Columbia Falls; Verna Pemble, Columbia Falls; Bea Martin, Coram; Jack S., Columbia Falls, Clair, Kalamath Falls, Oregon; and Martha Opalka, Columbia Falls. The oldest daughter Charlotte, passed away at the age of eight years. Mr. Johnston also leaves 26 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren; one brother Preston Johnston of Columbia Falls, and a sister, Mrs. Arvela McDonald of Livingston.
