A Sad Thanksgiving.
It becomes our painful duty to record the death of Mr. Charles Burnett, one of our promising young men.
After an illness of about six weeks, his spirit left his body a little before 6 o'clock Wednesday morning. He suffered a great deal during this time with typhoid pneumonia but he bore his sufferings very patiently.
Thursday (Thanksgiving day) at about 11 o'clock. A host of relatives and friends assembled at the school house to pay their last respect to the dead.
Service were conducted by the bishopric of the ward. Many comforting and consoling remarks were made by Bro. Peter Christansen of San Pete, and Bros. James Wood, John Fife and Bishop Cook. They all spoke highly of the good character of the deceased.
This affliction falls very severly upon Brother Burnett as he has had a great many trials to endure of late. It will no doubt be remembered that about five years ago his oldest daughter was killed by a shed falling upon her; about two and a half years after this, he buried his faithful and loving wife; a little over a year following this, he buried another wife. The next trouble in the family, his son buried a child; and now he has had to part with his son Charles. This is truly a hard trial to bear as a dutiful son, a great help to his father, a good kind brother and friend, every one had great confidence in him and liked him as a companion, and none could say ought by good of him; he was always on hand in ecclesiastical duties. But we must try to bear up and add in the words of "Job." "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away; blessed be the name of the Lord."
Mr. Charles was a little past 17 years at the time of his death. He was born at Farmington, Utah, and from there he with his parents came to this place while he was quite young, and has lived here ever since.
We trust that the comforting words that were spoken at the services will have a tendency to make his burden a little lighter for the father and family to bear.
It was ample evidence the esteem in which Charles was held by the great number that turned out to pay their last respects to the departed; and followed the remains to their last resting place.
May he rest in peace.
The Relief society of this place had anticipated having a Thanksgiving dinner at the school house before Charles got so sick, but an expected day of rejoicing was turned to one of mourning and deep sorrow.
