Merrell Funeral Marked by Courage and Resolutions
The funeral of Joseph G. Merrell, attorney and bar member, was held at 2 pm from his late home with Rev. M L Butler officiating. Merrell faced death bravely asking for relief via a hypodermic injection and bidding farewell to family, including a tearful last moment with his brother. His father, Mariman Akers, died in Kansas City the day earlier. A bar committee delivered resolutions of respect, noting Merrell’s standing and urging records and copies to his widow and mother. The Cherokee council approved most appropriations, except a disputed $3000 warrant payment.
