Last request Granted - The last request of William Philbrick of Fremont, N. H., who had worked most of his life with horses, was granted yesterday when his 81-year-old body was borne from church to cemetery in a horse-drawn hearse. In response to his request, his sons and friends got out the 80-year-old town hearse, unused for 40 years, and cleaned it up, and William Philbrick realized in death his last wish.
