FUNERAL OF MRS. BRIGHT
----------------------
RELATIVES FROM HERE ATTEND SERVICES AT RIVERTON

Relatives from this city who went to Riverton today to attend the funeral services of Mrs. Leb Bright which were held at 2 o'clock from the home at Riverton were: Mr. and Mrs. Harve Bright and sons Earl and Aaron; Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Bright; Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Cozad; Lawrence; Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Bright; Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Bright and family; Mr. and Mrs. Richard Welty and family; Mr. and Mrs. Lou Walker; Mrs. Vine Pease and Mrs. Glen Fleming.

Mrs. Bright is survived by her husband, who was a Civil War Veteran, and three sons, Monte and Harry Bright, residing at home, and John Bright of Ridgeway, Mo., who with his daughter Winnona came for the funeral.

A family reunion was held at the home in July, and the home has been the scene of many family gatherings. Mrs. Bright has not been well for some time but had been up and around as usual, and on Sunday, Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Bright and Mr. and Mrs. Harve Bright and son Earl of this city, were visitors in the home. Mrs. Bright retired at 8 o'clock Sunday night, feeling as well as usual, later arousing her husband for aid, and soon passed away, suffering a stroke of apoplexy.

The family were former residents of this city.
