W. G. GARRETT FUNERAL HELD
Services Conducted Saturday Afternoon For Brother of Local Judge
Warren Grayson Garrett, 64, brother of Judge David I. Garrett, of the Fourth Louisiana district, died shortly after 8 o'clock Saturday morning in a local clinic, where he had undergone an operation some days ago.
The funeral was held at Peters Funeral chapel Saturday a4 4:00 pm with Dr. A. M. Freeman, pastor of the First Methodist church of which Mr. Garrett was a member, officiating. Interment was in the Garrett family plot in the old city cemetery.
Mr. Garrett was a son of the late Franklin and Agnes Bond Garrett, and grandson of Colonel Isaiah Garrett, widely known attorney and an honor graduate of West Point academy. His son, Franklin Garrett, father of Warren Grayson Garrett, was a graduate of the University of North Carolina and served with distinction in the Confederate army. Franklin Garrett was for many years a member of the state board of education and was one of the founders of the present Monroe school system.
Warren Grayson Garrett received as good an education as could be secured in his early youth and he proved a capable student, one with a highly retentive mind. Years ago, he was reporter on the News-Star in the early days. In more recent years, he had served in the office of the newspapers here when extra assistance was required.
While of retiring nature, Mr. Garrett possessed a wide circle of friends. He never married and he spent considerable time in reading and study and was regarded as unusually well versed on world affairs which he delighted to discuss with friends.
The accident which ultimately cost his life was occasioned by a fall received when playing with his pet German police dog which was his almost constant companion. When in play with the animal, Mr. Garrett slipped and fell receiving an injury to a side which had previously been hurt. An immediate operation was required in a clinic and while he seemed to be rallying from the effects he became worse several days ago and failed up to the time of death.
Mr. Garrett leaves:
Two brothers:
Judge David I Garrett, Monroe, Louisiana
Frank B. Garrett of Alexandria, Virginia
A sister:
Mrs. Charles Cowie of Maryland
A niece:
Mrs. Agnes A Miller of Monroe, Louisiana
