The funeral, of Hiram Whitney, whose sudden death last week Thursday in Lowell came as such a shock to the townspeople, took place from the family residence Sunday afternoon at three o'clock and was largely attended by relatives, neighbors and friends. The floral offerings were of great beauty. Rev. B. H. Bailey was the officiating clergyman and brought a message of wise and tender sympathy. A quartet rendered some beautiful selections—"Lead, kindly light," and "Abide with me." The bearers were Sherman H. Fletcher, Edward Fisher, Oscar R. Spaulding and C. Willis Hildreth. Interment was in Fairview cemetery in the family [plot]. Mrs. Whitney's many friends are very glad that her daughter, Mrs. [Mabel E.] Wright, is staying with her.
