little daughters of the late Mr. and
Mrs. OscaeJiac-. ' and Fran

son, Marvin, who is only six years
old.
He was a member of Dorchester
Lodge of Odd Fellows, which lodge
will have charge of the funeral; he
was also an active member of Rescue
Fire Company, and took a great deal
of interest in all of its work.
