Funeral services will be held Friday afternoon, Jan. 5th, at 2:00 P.M. at the Lulloff Funeral Home in Colby under the auspices of the Colby Lodge F. & A.M. of which the deceased was a member.

The deceased was born in Warren, Pa., March 17, 1860, and lived in S. Dakota several years before coming to Colby in 1915 and engaged in farming. He never was married and is survived by three brothers, George Fehlman of Colby, A. J. Fehlman of Rockham, S. Dak., and J. P. Fehlman of Frankfort, S. Dak.
