DEATH OF ROBERT REDINGTON
Robert Redington, eldest son of Mrs. Lillie B. Redington, died Tuesday morning of epilepsy, at his mother's home. Mrs. Redington had been out in the garden and on going into the house found he had passed away during her absence. Dr. Wright was called but found nothing could be done. He was born near Licksville, Minn., Sept. 27, 1883. He came to Idaho with his parents when two and one-half years of age, and has made his home here or in Payette with his mother all his life, except from the age of 12 to 18, when he resided with relatives in Ohio. The past year has been spent on the Fruitland ranch. He was a conscientious Christian young man of splendid character and has been a member of the Christian church of Payette, many years. His father, William Redington, was accidentally killed about 10 years ago. He leaves his mother and two brothers, Jesse, of Washington, and Harry, at home.
Mr. Jesse Redington, brother of deceased, arrived Wednesday night from his home in Meringo, Washington.
The family have the sympathy of their many friends both in Fruitland and Payette.
The funeral services were conducted from the Christian church in Payette, by the pastor, Rev. Benjamin Smith.
