MANITOBA FREE PRESS, WINNIPEG THURSDAY JANUARY 29, 1924

Funeral held of Barnardo Boy Who Committed Suicide

(Canadian Press Despatch.)

Omsameo, Ont., Jan. 28 -- While six of his Old County companions stood by with heads bowed, the body of John Payne, the Barnado [sic] home lad, who on Thursday took his life, was yesterday placed in a lonely grave here.

The last person to leave the freshly turned mound was George Payne the 14-year-old brother of John, who drove from Petersboro and reached here just in time for the funeral. With the tears streaming down his face, he stood there, a pathetic figure, until the kind hand of Inspector John Stanners led him back to the sleigh.
