Buried 11 Mar 1926, ThursdayOldtime Westerner Succumbs to Attack of Flu-Pneumonia
Struggling with a heart ailment that seemed incurable and month after month growing weaker, Frank McCartney, oldtimer of the west, needed but a slight attack of influenza to bring his stuggle with ill health to an end. Powell people and those of the entire Big Horn basin country, where McCartney labored for years as a sheepshearer, farmer and miner, knew him. For months last winter he was a patient at the Whitlock hospital, where he suffered with a very bad heart. McCartney went from the hospital here to the Ed Jones ranch at Penrose last summer, and it was at this home that he died last Tuesday morning at 3 o'clock. Mr. Jones was with him when he breathed his last and he and the attending physician made some effort to get from him information concerning the whereabouts of any relatives he might have, but they learned nothing. It is known that McCartney was born in Livingston, New York, June 6, 1866 - 59 years ago - and efforts are being made to trace his family connections from that point. He was a hardworking, saving sort of oldtimer, and had lived about, Cody, Worland and Meeteetse in years past. He leaves some property, and Mr. Jones, with the assistance of Attorney Goppert, are looking into his affairs, under authority of Judge Metz, that his modest savings in two or three Big Horn basin banks may be ascertained.
In July, 1925, McCartney accepted of the Mormon faith, and under the auspices of this religious denominaton his body is being laid at rest this afternoon at the Penrose cemetery.

Fire Accitent Claims Life of Penrose Man
Death relieved the suffering of Orvil Wasden of Penrose Tuesday morning after he had been fatally burned 24 hours earlier at his home. He received the burns when a large oil can, containing tractor fuel, exploded as he was pouring from it into a fire in a stove. The fuel saturated his clothing after the explosion and he ran from the house and for some distance before Mrs. Wasden overtook him and threw a quilt around him. The first quilt was also burned and a second was needed to completely smother the flames.
The couple then drove in a truck loaded with coal to the home of his parents, where Dr. Graham of Powell was called and immediately after the examination he was taken to the Lovell Hospital where he was treated to ease his suffering. He remained conscious during Monday and passed away just 24 hours after his accident.
As a result of the fire in the home the kitchen was completely burned, but neighbors controlled the blaze before much other damage was done.
Funeral arrangements have not been announced, as a brother is expected to arrive from California today or tomorrow.
