Memorial day service and plans for next year in Truce
For Memorial day 1941 in Henrietta and nearby towns the service drew a large crowd despite light rain. Judge John V. Lyles spoke at the cemetery arbor while music by Wall quartet and Elenburgs band accompanied accordion solos by Earline Morris and Alta Fae Palmer. Attendees extended thanks to Ed Bulls of Newport and noted plans to hold an all day Decoration day and Memorial services next year on the third Sunday in May with a big ground dinner inviting old timers from distant areas.
