FUNERAL OF MRS . A . E . NOGAL
It was a sorrowing community which gathered at the Methodist church Wednesday atternon to pay its last respects to one of its most beloved women, Mrs . Grace Harris , Nogal. The church was crowded to overflowing with sorrowing friends j of . the deceased and the funeral bier i and altar were banked high with beautiful flowers , in touching memory of the departed loved one . Rev . C . R . Stockinger read the following brief obituary, and then delivered a most touching discourse : I On February 24 , 1898 , while residing in Colorado Springs , a baby was born to Mr . and Mrs . Jos . Harris and though this was their third child and daughter , so great Is parental love that instantly the little one found abundant room in their hearts . They gave the baby girl the beautiful and suggestive name , Grace . Two ycara later the Harris family moved to Ejgle county , locating at Gypsum . When Grace was five years old , tsey came to Eagle and here they have lived ever since . Grace received her education in the Eagle public schools , where she was an industrious and an alert student . After graduating she hold responsible positions in the community , including ; telephone operator and assistant in the post ofticr . Duriig the pastorate of the Rev. Mr . Bonnell , together with a SHUT and other girlhood friends , Grace was given in Christian baptism in the Eagle Methodist church . It is inspiring to think how the beautiful name given her as a baby was thus sealed to her in this sacred sacrament of our christian faith.

Arriving at young womanhood , Miss Grace gave her heart to one of the splendid young men of the community , and on January 15 , 1922 , she became the wife of Mr . Ernest Nogal . The young couple made their home with her parents . And so it happens that of the four Harris girls Grace alone has lived constantly withher father and mother . No doubt this fact increases their present grief and renders their sorrow more poignant and terrible .

On Saturday , Oct . 11 , while at work in the telephone exchange , Mrs . Nogal suddenly became very ill . She was taken at once to a hospital in Glenwood Springs . Two major operations were performed in a vain j attempt to save her life . Death waa I inevitable . She passed away Satur- j day morning , just one week from the day she became sick . j Those whom Grace has left behind ] are : Her husband , her father and mother , and three sisters , Eliirabeth of Los Angeles , Luella of Qulncy , Calif ., and Hazel , who , although residing away , still calls Eagle her home . Besides these immediate relatives their are many others who share their loss wtih them . A male quartet consisting of Jos . | D . Allen , H . D . Hudson , H . K . Brooks and E . E . Lea , sang two songs at i the church service , while Mrs . Berger rendered a most touching and beautiful vocal solo . Pall bearers were Herman Stein , Ralph Belding , Jos . Rule Chas . Byers , Gene K . Luby , nnd Lee Bergman , schoolmates or close friends of her later years . Following the church service the body was inten-etl m the romcterv at Eagle , where a great number of truly sorrowing friends witnessed the of the remains in their iast pl-icin ^ r earthly resting place . . ri _
