Kirk, which occurred under sad and distressing circumstances at his home in Marcus last Monday noon, the people of Stevens county have sustained a great and deeply regretted loss. It was while in the performance of his usual duties in his place of business in the city market that he accidentally plunged the point of a knife, which he had in his hand, into his groin, severing an artery, and before he could reach his home and family, only a few feet away, feel faint to the ground and expired before surgical aid could be brought. William T. Kirk was born in California 41 years ago and it was always his pride that he was of pioneer stock and a native of the Golden state. He came with his parents to the state of Washington over 30 years ago, and 28 years ago, while a small boy, came to Stevens county, where the family established their permanent domicile and where the youth grew to mature and substantial manhood, and after finishing a business college course he established himself in business in Marcus, where he grew in fortune and influence to being on of the first citizens in Stevens county. In the organization of the city government he occupied many offices of trust, and in 1910 was made the democratic nominee for county commissioner for the second district. Mr. Kirk was married on April 16, 1902, to Miss Myrtle M. Baughman, and their children are: Leonard, a son, aged eight, and two daughters, Virginia, aged six, and Dorris, two years, who are left with their mother, surviving; also, are his parents, Judge William C. Kirk of Marcus, and Mrs. John Leonard of Northport, and four brothers, Ed Kirk of St. Maries, Idaho; Taswell Kirk, Spokane; Ernest Kirk and Valentine Kirk, and a sister, Ines, the last three at home in Marcus. An uncle, Thomas Kirk, lives in Colville. Deceased was a man of strong personality and entertained abiding and sincere friendships. His home life was ideal and family ties were sealed in the strongest affection, a trait characteristic of his ancestry. The funeral services at the home were conducted by Rev. Spicer, pastor of the Presbyterian church, and there was in attendance almost the entire population of the city. Out of the very high esteem in which the deceased citizen was held, the business housed were closed during the funeral. At the conclusion of the ceremonies the casket was reposed in the tender hands of Odd Fellow lodge, Non154, of Kettle Falls, where he held his membership for many years, and conveyed to Colville for interment in the family plot in Evergreen cemetery. The impressive ceremony of that order was given. Out of regard for the wide and warm friendship for their departed friend, the funeral was attended by many hundred people, many coming from remote parts of adjoining counties, and the encomium of praise that fell from their lips was that he was a fearless and an honest man.
