public life have lost a true friend and his passing is a great loss
to this community.

dence he enjoyed and deserved. He was admired and esteemed by all
those who knew him and he gave his untiring efforts to serve the

to God and humanity.
He was appointed to his first public office in the year of
1913 as Assistant City Attorney for Salt Lake City, and in the year
