Robert Frayne Dies at His Home in Burrton, Kansas

Mr. Robert Frayne, for many years associated with Mr. Frank Frayne of New York as a dramatist, died in Burrton, Kan., February 13.  His illness dates back to an attack of the grip in 1893, which led him to give up the stage.  His circle of friends was large, and his death is lamented by all.  His funeral took place from the Methodist Church February 14, and his remains were followed by a large concourse of people to the cemetery where the last curtain fell amid great floral tributes.  Words of commendation and praise of the deceased were well spoken by Mrs. E. C. Polard and Rev. Cummings.  A wife and one daughter mourn his loss.
