Interment will be in the Grove Hill Cemetery. Former Senator Succumbs WASHINGTON AP) -Afabu- ous, florid political era has ended. Former Sen. Henry Fountain of Ari20i)3, last of the great, oratorical freewheelers, died Thursday at 87, Ashurst suffered a stroke May 6, but until then his magnificent voice that stirred, amused and angered so many- remained in booming fettle. 'Five-syllable Henry," he called limself.

And for 29 years, from 012 to 1911, lie drenched Senate vith rococo words rarely found nowadays except in unabridged dictionaries. Ironically, (his man who in real ife was rarely caught cither nap- sing or keeping quiet had as his ast job the role of a dozing sena- or in the motion picture, "Advise ind Consent." Even Ashursl's birth, on Sept. 3,1874, in a wagon while his parents were hurrying West, drama- ized his ties with a bygone age. At 13, Ashurst parted with formal schooling, but he continued to ead industriously, especially his jeloved Shakespeare. He worked as a cowboy, and there in the vide open spaces young Henry racticed wide open oratory on tartled jackrabbits and coyotes.

"1 could throw 55-pound words ilear across the Grand Canyon," ishurst later recalled with his iisarming immodesty. "As a mater of course, I went into politics." As a matter of course, anyone vho can throw words like that into the Senate. When Ariona became a slate, Ashurst was lamed one of its first two sena- ors. Ashurst, a Democrat, rose to he chairmanship of the impor- ant Senate Judiciary Committee, charge of some of the Frankin D. Roosevelt New Deal's most controversial legislation.

Yet was his windblown oratory- peppered with a delightful inconsistency--that is best remembered oday. Mrs. Mary Guignon Funeral services were held at 3:30 p.m. Thursday for Mrs. Mary Guignon from the Charles A.
