Obituary
BURTON SCOTT PASSES FOLLOWING LONG ILLNESS
Burton Scott passed away at his home in Kuna Saturday following a long illness. Mr. Scott has made his home in or near Kuna for many years and will be remembered by a host of friends as a man of staunch and true principles, a fine Christian man, a good husband, father and neighbor, and will be sadly missed from our community. Deepest sympathy is extended his family.

SCOTT, BURTON WILSON, Kuna, Certificate #31336, b. 04/19/1876, d. 10/31/1942

In February or March of 1904, David Garrett Scott and family arrived at the end of the Ore. Short Line Rail Road, at Meridian, Idaho. The snow was so deep that winter that they couldn't get teams and wagons over the roads to Long Valley until June. However, Effie said her two older brothers, Burt and G. K., went up earlier by horseback to scout around. Later, they both took up homesteads near present day Lake Fork.
