Death of S. G. Watson

Sanford G. Watson died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. W. D. Farnham. He had been in poor health several months, and although everything possible was done for his comfort and in hopes of his recovery he succumbed to the dreadful malady with which he was afflicted. He had lived at Salmon, Idaho, a number of years, at which place his wife passed away in July, and since that time he has made his home in Payette with his daughter.

Sanford G. Watson was born February 12, 1864, at Terra Haute, Ind., and departed this life February 9, 1925. He leaves to mourn their loss a daughter, Mrs. W. D. Farnham, of Payette, and a son, Edmond Watson, of Salmon, Idaho. Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church Wednesday afternoon, Rev. Argyl Houser officiating.

The body, accompanied by the son, was taken to Salmon, for burial by the side of his wife.
