Harry Garfield Littrell was born near Wilbur, Nebraska, May 23, 1880, and died at Manning, Iowa, Friday, February 13, 1914, aged 33 years, 8 months and 20 days.

On September 11, 1903, he was married to Miss Lulu Bailey at Manning, Iowa. To this union three children were born: Glen, Harold, and Lucille, who with his wife survive him. He is also survived by his aged father and mother, four brothers and five sisters: Mrs. O.P. Yant, Crete, Nebraska; W.D. Littrell, Wilbur, Nebraska; C.R. Littrell, Buckingham, Colorado; T.N. Littrell, Waterloo, Iowa; Mrs. A.J. Bailey, Ontario, Iowa; George Littrell, Calloway, Nebraska; Bessie Littrell, of Calloway, Nebraska; and Thomas and Hazel Littrell, of Wilbur, Nebraska.

The father and one sister were unable to attend the funeral on account of illness; one sister remained at the bedside of her father and two brothers were unable to be present at the funeral.

The deceased was employed for a number of years by the Fairmont Creamery Company, and retired from their service only when his illness became so distressing as to render him unable to perform his duties. He was a patient sufferer for about two years. His hardest trials seemed to be his inability to work for the welfare of his family and see other obliged to serve him.

About six months before his death he consulted the Doctors at Mayo Clinic at Rochester, Minnesota, hoping to gain relief and health through their skill, but they pronounced his disease incurable and informed him he had but a few months to live. He was mercifully spared all physical suffering during all his illness except the discomfort arising from it. During these trying times he was always patient, never complaining, quiet and thoughtful. His was a nature that was always unobtrusive, cheerful and such that he always inspired in others a deep regard for and implicit confidence in him. All with whom he associated were his friends and he was theirs.

The funeral services were held at the home of the deceased's wife's father, Henry W. Bailey, in Manning, with whom he and his family have made their home for the past year.

Rev. E.B. Scoggan assisted by a chosen choir of friends and in the presence of a large company of the relatives of both the deceased and his surviving wife and of friends, conducted the service.

The Scripture reading was the 90th "Psalm and the text used was I Corinthians 13:12."

The choir sang the following hymns: "Saved by Grace," "Rock of Ages," "It is not Death to Die."

Many beautiful floral offerings bore mute witness of the affection of friends.

The body was laid to rest in the Manning Cemetery to await the great Resurrection Day.
