Sutherland Shelton Peck, Sam Haler.
He is survived by his widow and one daughter, Mrs. Vesta Bares of Blencoe, Iowa, three sons, Ed and Clyde, both of Blair and Wilbur of Lincoln.

There are seventeen grandchildren and twelve great grandchildren.
Mr. Noyes was a member of the Baptist Church of this city and faithfully attended at its service while his health permitted. He was a kind, loving husband, father, and friend, therefore a good citizen whose departure will be greatly missed by all who know him. The bereaved family has the sincere sympathy of their many friends.
