The funeral of Fred Thompson, the well known butcher, took place yesterday afternoon and the remains were interred at Evergreen Cemetery. One of the chief mourners at the funeral was Captain William Crout, the well known conductor n the K C. He and the deceased were life long friends and while in their teens in 1862, they both ran away from their homes in Covington and volunteered their services to their country and served throughout the war.

Prominent among the many floral pieces around the casket was a large and magnificent one form Captain Crout, in memory of his deceased comrade.
