Note

EZRA MERKLEY DIES A VICTIM OF THE INFLUENZA DISEASE

Ezra Merkley, one of the best known residents of this city, died at his home Saturday evening [18 January 1919] shortly after 11 o'clock as a result of pneumonia, superinduced by heart failure. He had been ill, but a week, and his death will be received by his many friends with sincere regret. Having been afflicted with heart trouble more or less throughout his life, he proved to be an easy victim to the dreaded influenza pneumonia. He is survived by a widow and three young children.

Mr. Merkley was born in Vernal 31 years ago last September and is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Merkley of this city. He has always made his home here and has been one of the stalwart members of the community, and an ardent member of the "Mormon" church. He was the bookkeeper at the Ashley Co-operative company for some time and was an untiring worker, giving the best there was in him.

Brief funeral services will be held at the city cemetery Monday afternoon [20 January 1919] with but members of the family present, due to the Influenza quarantine.
