March 1, 1907 Wray Rattler "For several months it has been known to his most
intimate friends that the inevitable must happen and that
Comrade Huddloson's earthly career was steadily coming to an end. On Monday,
February 25th, 1907, at 2:45 p. m., the careworn spirit of Charles Huddleson,
soldier, citizen, friend and neighbor, was released from his wasted, tired,
pain-racked body and the cares of this earth and took its flight to the
Great Beyond.
Mr. Huddleson's sufferings were very great from
that terrible malady, cancer, which was aggravated, and his denth hastened,
by tuberculosis, which had been developing for some years. He bore his
sufferings like the true soldier he was,
never murmuring, but patiently waiting for the
orders of the Great Commander to come up higher.
His funeral, which was largely attended,
was ably conducted by Elder A. E. Tabor at the
L. D. S. church, Wray, Colorado, of which he
was a consistent member, on February 28th,
at 2 o'clock.
The choir rendered some
choice selections and Elder Tabor an
appropriate and interesting discourse.
Mrs. Letitia Scott sang a beautiful
solo, 'We Shall Know it All Some Day',
after which the remains were borne to
Grand View cemetery where they were
laid to rest until the resurrection.
The Grand Army of the Republic
conducted the burial service which
was timely and impressive.
Charles Huddleson was born
May 10, 1839, and served through
the Civil War and was honorably
discharged at its close.
A wife and five children are left
to mourn his death,
John and Everett, of Oregon,

large circle of friends
in Yuma county and elsewhere."
