ATTEND PUGH FUNERAL
Snow-blocked highways Monday prevented many Bismarck persons from driving to Dickinson to attend funeral services for the late District Judge Thomas H. Pugh, who died there Saturday.
Among those who had planned to attend were District Judges Fred Jansonius, Bismarck, and R. G. McFarland, Jamestown, and members of the local bar association.
Even the possibility of traveling to Dickinson by train was closed to them, since the westbound Northern Pacific train was an hour late Monday and would not reach Dickinson until too late for the rites.
Governor William Langer telegraphed a message of condolence to the widow and family of Judge Pugh.
