C. E. Brainard
The death last week in Payette of C. E. Brainard removes a useful citizen from our midst. When he passed away the grief that was felt was widespread and sincere.
C. E. Brainard was a man who united sound sense with honest convictions, of excellent habits and fine moral character. A life that imparts such lessons is well worth living, and his memory will always be cherished by a large circle of acquaintances.
