      FUNERAL
      MRS. M. M. POOLE
      The funeral of Mrs. Minnie Maud
      Poole, J.P., moved from St. Luke's
      Church of England, Junee, yesterday,
      after a short service conducted by the
      Rev. H. Staples. As the coffin was
      borne from the church it passed
      through a guard of honor composed of
      members of the Red Cross Society, of
      which Mrs. Poole had been secretary
      for the past 12 years. The funeral
      cortege was a lengthy one on arrival
      at the cemetery. The members of the
      Red Cross Society, each carrying a
      wreath, lined upon each side of the
      hearse as the coffin passed through.
      The carriers were Messrs. F.
      Hughes (president of the Returned
      Soldiers' League), W. D. Walster, F.
      Mead and M. Runge. The chief
      mourners at the graveside were Mrs.
      Poole's two sons, William and James,
      and her brother, Mr. George Ashton.
      The service at the graveside was con
      ducted by the Rev. H. Staples, assist
      ed by the Rev. Pike (Temora), a close
      friend of the family, and the Rev.
      Daniels. One hundred and thirty
      wreaths were placed on the grave,
      many of which were from public
      bodies. Messrs. Black and Pickles
      carried out the funeral arrangements.
