Able Dildine Dies At Age of 83; Pioneer Resident
Prominent IOOF Member Was Early Day Builder
Funeral services were conducted at the Austin Mortuary Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock for Abe Dildine, early day resident who passed away in Reno where he had been a patient in a hospital for several months. Mr. Dildine who came to Churchill County shortly after the townsite of Fallon had been laid out, had spent most of his life in this community where he had been in construction work and had built many of the houses and business buildings in the downtown section. Several years ago his health failed and he had been unable to get around but little in the last year.
The funeral arrangements were made by Rogers-O'Brien of Reno with the Fallon service in charge of the Austin Mortuary under the auspices of the I.O.O.F. of which he had been an active and devoted member for fifty-five years. He had served in may offices with the local order and was past grand patriarch of the Nevada Grand Encampment. His work with the Odd Fellows had been his chief joy and during his last years he found much pleasure in reminiscing his experiences in the order.
The Rev. Lorne Mee assisted with funder service with W. G. Miller and Waldo Davis in charge of the IOOF ritual. Music was by Mrs. Earl Harriman who sang "No Night There" and "Abide With Me" with Mrs. Arthur Challstrom as accompanist.

Pallbearers were Carl Huttman, Walter Davis, Sam Taylor, Dayton George, Bill Lee and Leo Gross. Interment was in the Odd Fellows Plot in the local cemetery.
