FUNERAL of FRANK BRUBER

A large concourse of people gathered Sunday to pay their last sad testimonials of respect to the memory of the late Frank Bruber at the family home on Prairie Island, and also express their sorrow and sympathy with the family so suddenly bereaved. Friends from Hastings came in carriages bringing also a beautiful hearse for the burial.

The exercises were conducted by M. B. Lewis, their Sunday school missionary, both at the house and cemetery. Within the coffin the arrangements of flowers showed delicate and refined taste, where lay the remains of Mr. Bruber like one sleeping in health. On the surface, covering a portion of the coffin, Co. F of the Seventh regiment, had draped the flag of his country he has loved so well. On this was laid a large anchor of white chrysanthemums and delicate cream roses; also a wreath of white carnations, and chrysanthemums at the foot. On the glass cover lay the badge in blue and gold of the Scandinavian Benevolent society, of which he was one of the founders. The distance to the cemetery was nearly three miles, over which his comrades of the G. A. R. esteemed it a privilege to walk at the side of the hearse the whole distance. In front of hearse was a large representation of the Benevolent society from Red Wing, who also walked the entire distance, to do honor to the memory of their associate of many years. The arrangement of the pressing crowd, in the home, and outside, and the long cortege of vehicles was under the direction of Mr. Bloomquist. To him and singers, and the G. A. R. comrades, who acted as bearers, and the representation of the Scandinavian Benevolent society, and others who so kindly have aided them in their great sorrow, the family wishes to express their thanks and heartfelt appreciation of all the kindness shown.

The pallbearers were Wm. Heiserman, Wm. H. Blaker, John Jordan, Wm. Llewellyn, Frank A. Carlson, John Nelson, Nels Thornberg, R. Bartron.
