communist purpose. They learn
ed of Syngman Rhee’s release of

it delayed truce talks. Even

Rhee. “It is easily understand

In his opinion, the fight in
Korea was definitely necessary.
“We have not done our full share
until we combat communism as
long as we live. If the war in
Korea had some effect on stop
ping communism, and if the mis
takes made, both politically and
militarily, are corrected, then
this affair will have been useful.”
Chief Thorin holds the distin

of duty in Korea from August,
1950, to February, 1951. He visit
ed here in the spring of 1951 be

A veteran of 14 years service

class of 1936.
His mother, the late Mrs. Clara
Thorin, died in February, 1952,
without knowing her son had
been downed by the enemy. His
father died several years ago.
Chief Thorin is well-known in

THANK YOU
This week the BIGLIN BROTHERS firm formally
passes into new, well-qualified and experienced
hands, and thus marks the end of continuous and un
interrupted family operation and ownership. The BIG
LIN firm was established in 1885 by the late Mr. O. F. j
Biglin when the community of O’Neill was in its infancy.
When he died two of his sons, Mr. William J. and Mr.
Frank J., together guided and expanded the firm which
came to be known as BIGLIN BROTHERS. "Bill” died
in February, 1950, and Frank died in July, 1953.
BECAUSE of the tradition in these 68 years and because
of a sense of loyalty and gratitude to this good
community (a feeling which is shared by every member
of the Biglin family), we find it difficult to make this
announcement. Yet, in turning over the firm to the
new owners, Mr. R. G. Clinkscales and Mr. George
Hammond, we are sure you’ll find the BIGLIN successors
very high type gentlemen who already are a real credit
to their profession and who will be assets to the com
munity in their business partnership.
WE FEEL it is understandable why we have elected to
terminate the family operation of the firm and that
you will understand. You never will know, however, how
grateful the Biglin family has been to this community
and how we cherish the honor that has been bestowed
upon our firm by hundreds of families. We are pleased
that Mr. Clinkscales and Mr. Hammond have asked that
the firm, now in new hands, embark upon the future
with the BIGLIN name.
-MRS. WILLIAM J. BIGLIN
—MRS. FRANK BIGLIN
ANNOUNCEMENT
WE ARE pleased to announce the formation of a part
nership that will endeavor to fulfill the BIGLIN
BROTHERS responsibilities in this community. We
are mindful of the very fine tradition and we will strive
ever to be worthy of our place in community life. Insofar
as is humanly possible, we will pursue the same policies
of the BIGLINS including the same staff, funeral di
recting and furniture sales.
MR. CLINKSCALES is not new to the community, hav
ing been in the employ of the late Biglin Brothers
during the early periods of their respective illnesses. Mr.
Hammond is a lifelong resident and an employee of Big
lin Brothers for the past V/i years.
OUR OWNERSHIP became effective Sunday, Novem
ber I. The business office and records always will be
available to persons wishing to make settlements of ac
counts with the Biglin family.
