   Funeral services for the late H. G. Sacia were held Sunday from the home in Holmen Sunday afternoon when a multitude of relatives and friends gathered to pay their last respects to the departed and to extend their sympathy to the bereaved family.
   The Rev. J. Kroonemeyer of West Salem, a close frend of Mr. Sacia, delivered the funeral sermon. Miss Carrol Halderson of Galesville sang two appropriate hymns, "One Sweetly Solumn Thought" and "Calvary" with Mrs. Cleve Sacia at the organ.

   Interment was in the Green Mound Cemetery.
   Harmon George, son of the late Harmon and Cordelia Sacia, was born on a farm near Stevenstown, Feb. 13, 1854, and passed away at a La Crosse hospital, Aug. 29, 1929.
   Mr. Sacia grew to manhood on the farm where he was born, and when his parents moved to the farm now owned by Fred Sacia, near Galesville, he became owner of the old homestead, where he lived until ten years ago, when he purchased property in Holmen and his son Vern continued on the farm.
   Mr. Sacia was married April 6, 1881, to Lena Holter, who survives as do eight children: Howard and Vern, Holmen; Harry, Mindoro; Mrs. B. O. Wall, Mrs. A. B. Thoreson, Mrs. Segur Johnson and Mrs. Orton Nelson, Holmen; and Mrs. Chas. Hall, International Falls, Minn. He is also survived by twenty-eight grand children; two brothers, Lincoln, of Holmen; Clarence, of Galesville. Three brothers, Charles, Frank, and Marion, and four sisters, Sarah, Minnie, Sylvia and Lily preceded Mr. Sacia in death.
   Mr. Sacia was apparently well and was active up to the day he was taken to the hospital, Aug. 11, when an operation was found necessary. From the first little hope was held for his recovery. Mrs. Hall, the only member of the family at a distance, was advised of her father's condition and arrived home two weeks before her aged parent passed away.
   Having lived in La Crosse county for 75 years, he was well known and had hosts of friends, both young and old, by whom he will be greatly missed.

   We wish to express our sincere thanks to all those who in any way rendered their assistance during our recent bereavement, the illness and death of our beloved husband and father. Especially do we thank Rev. Kroonemeyer, Miss Carol Halderson, the pall bearers, the flower bearers, and all those who sent flowers.
         Mrs. H. G. Sacia and Children.
