791 Has Arm Buried With Him
Unusual Request of Laban Gritten Who Recently Died
Collison, Ill., April 2. - Perhaps one of the most novel requests ever made by a citizen of this part of the county was that made by Laben Gritten, an aged resident of Blount township, who passed away at the home of his son, William Gritten. The decedent had the misfortune to lose an arm 22 years ago last January and the dismembered part of the body was buried on the home place, where it remained since the accident happened. Realizing that he was going to pass away, Mr. Gritten made the request that the arm be disinterred and that it be buried with his body in the Knight's Branch cemetery. While, of course, the arm had long ago returned to dust, the children of the decedent sough to carry out the dying wish of their father and the ashes of the arm he had lost more than two decades were taken up just preceding the burial of the body and were interred with the later, Wednesday morning.
Mr. Gritten was born in the state of Kentucky, January 19, 1831, and came to Illinois when but twelve years of age.
