PRATT INMAN FUNERAL SERVICES ARE CONDUCTED

Impressive funeral services were held this afternoon for Pratt C. Inman, president of the board of Education. Hundreds of San Rafael residents paid homage to the veteran board member, as the last rites took place under the auspices of Marin Lodge F. and A. M., of which he had been a member for many years. Rev. John Jefferson Canoles assisted in the service.

Members of the Girls’ League and Boys’ Organization of the San Rafael high school attended in a body, while hundreds of students and teachers and graduates of the local schools, for whose benefit Inman had devoted many years of his life, were present and followed the flower draped casket to its last resting place in Tamalpais Cemetery.

Active pallbearers were Charles Mitchell, N. Charles Brusatori, Al Marall (sic), Frank Brown, A. Borkheim and Oliver Hartzell. Honorary pallbearers were Lawrence Moore, Dr. Hubert Dudley, Dr. Charles du Bois, Dr. F. E. Sawyer, Henry Greer, Dr. G. G. Vanderlip and N. W. Sexton.

Inman is survived by his widow, Mrs. Caroline Inman and his son Everett P. Inman.
