Young Hero Is Laid To Rest
The last, sad rites in memory of another gold star winner were
conducted Sunday afternoon, when Francis S. Larew, of the 349th
Ambulance company, medical corps, was laid to rest. The young warrior,
who died at Hericourt, France, Oct. 11, 1918, after less than four
months in the service, was a son of Mr. and Mrs. C.S. Larew, of Iowa
City. He was 26 in November. The American Legion conducted the military
funeral, Sunday, and the event was one of beauty and impressiveness.
