Death which was apparently due to a heart attack had occurred as he was on his way to town but he had planned to go to the home of friends Thursday night and no concern was felt until he failed to return Friday. Archie Kinney started out to look for him and found his car off the road just over a little hill from the home near Newville where he was born and raised and spent his entire life. Following services at the Sweet chapel in Orland, there will be burial services in the Newville cemetery. Rev. H. S. Saxby of Willows is officiating in both chapel and graveside services. Mr. Luce was born near Newville September 20, 1876, youngest child of Alonzo and Elizabeth Luce, who were among the earliest pioneers of the district. When the family holdings were divided up in 1907 after the death of his parents, he took his share and had farmed it and made it his family home ever since. Surviving him is his wife, Edith, formerly Miss Edith Lockwood of Elk Creek, who is also a member of a prominent pioneer family of the county. There is also one brother, Guy Luce, surviving. Mr. Luce was for many years constable of the Newville district, which in recent years has been consolidated with the Orland Judicial township. Transcribed by E.
