LEGION ACCORDS MILITARY HONORS TO DEAD VETERAN

Sounding of "Taps" over the newly made grave at Cedar City cemetery concluded the American legion's services yesterday in honor to Floyd W. Griffin, who died overseas, and whose body has lain in the vault at Oakwood cemetery since it was brought back to Austin last January.

Services under the auspices of the American Legion began at the Soldiers' monument at Oakwood cemetery at four o'clock, with Rev. J. W. McFarlane officiating. The Methodist choir sang.

A salute was fired by the Legion, and taps blown over the grave at Cedar City.
