Besides his family he is survived by two brothers Samuel M. of Carpenter, Wyoming, and Daniel C. of Eddyville. Frank Burns, as he was known to all his friends, has passed his entire life in this community, and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew him. Fraternally, he was an old member of Pleiades Lodge No. 15, Knights of Pythias, he having been one of the charter members of the local lodge. He was always an active member of the order and was a trustee at the time of his death. The funeral services, which were held at the family home at two o’clock last Monday afternoon, were largely attended, and the floral offerings were many and beautiful. The funeral discourse was delivered by Rev. A. S. Kilbourn, the Congregational pastor. Prayer was offered by Rev. Wayne Waters, of the Congregational church at Oskaloosa. Appropriate songs were sung by a male quartet consisting of C. L. Phillips, Earl T. Roberts, W. S. Shinn and Roy Lafferty. The Knights of Pythias had charge of the services at the grave in the family lot in Highland cemetery. EDDYVILLE TRIBUNE, June 27, 1919, Page 1
