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.
