Abram Frank and Peter James, the eldest two sons of Mr. and Mrs. Abram Wiens of Travers, Alberta, lost their lives on July 21, when the truck in which they were riding plunged into an irrigation canal.
Funeral services for the boys were held in the MB Church in Coaldale on July 24. Rev. E. B. Anderson, pastor of the Free Evangelical Church of Enchant and Rev. D. J. Pankratz of Coaldale were the funeral speakers. Rev. A. Gallaiford of the Free Evangelical Church of Champion conducted the graveside service.
In their sorrow, Mr. and Mrs. Wiens rejoice that both boys knew Jesus as their Saviour and they cherish the hope of reunion. Abram Frank was 12 years, 11 months at the time of his passing, Peter James was 12 years. They leave to mourn, their parents, one sister, four younger brothers, their paternal grandparents and many relatives and friends.
