Albert was born at Dushore, Pa., July 18, 185#; was 1 mai ried to Minnie E. Troup on June 7. 1888, and died at 8 o'clock Wed nesday morning, July 16, 1924, at ; his home in Payette. He is survived by his wife and four children: Les ter F. Albert of Boise; David W. Al bert of Tu8con, Arizona; Marvin D. Albert of Payette, and Marjorie Al ; bert of Payette; also two brothers, ! Peter Albert of New Plymouth and George Albert of Butte Falls, Ore. I He was educated in the schools of Pennsylvania and came into our midst in 1892. For ten years he . , . . , ... : was superintendent of our public , . . , , , , . . .. schools and devoted more of his time .... . 'to the interest of public lmprove . . . . , ments and civic enterprises than any , ... other man in this community. .... , . , . , I His interests included agriculture, ,, . , . horticulture, banking, manufactur ing, and such projects as go to the , developing of our resources. He was a devoted and conscientious worker in the church, our public schools and fraternal orders. We can hardly realize that M. F. Albert has passed on. We believe ithe spirit lives after death and man ilitests itself in Its influence upon others according to the work and . worth of the departed person during their ]ife time yj ule lbe voice t|lat SQ o(te n thrilled this communT [Q jts nobIest destinies, yet the ' uplirtin g p0W er of his example the | enncb!ing influence of his associa j 1 j tion among us. becomes our priceless j heritage aud a gift to the ages. M. F. Albert worked here, work ; ed with a purpose to comfort and help those he loved and those he j loved will include the whole of de serving mankind. He will continue to j do good works in some other man i ston of h.is Father's house. I if ail those for whom Mr. Albert ■ has done some kindly act were to bring a flower and place it upon his tomb, he would sleep beneath a wilderness of flowers. Love weeps! Momentarily sorrow and '.ho ebon tide rush upon us, but momentarily only, for them the blue abyss, our loved one returns. Un der the confidence of immortality, we see him smile in memory's mir : : ror.
