Fisher Funeral This Morning
Under Direction of Brother Fireman
Masonic Burial Service at Fairlawn
The funeral services of William W. Fisher, the fireman who met death
in the Frisco wreck Sunday night, will take place this morning at No. 411
Pottawatomie, at 10 am and the sermon will be preached by Rev. Harper.
The burial services of the Masonic order will be observed, as this order
has charge of the body. He was also a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen, but the headquarters of this lodge, being in Sapulpa, was to far away
to admit of the boys taking charge. However, several of his brother firemen
are looking after all the arrangements.
Mrs. Fisher has already arrived from Monett. She is bearing up splendidly
though the shock of her husband's awful death is telling on her. Her mother
and father, and Mr. Fisher's mother and father arrived on No. 413 Frisco, last
night.
