the remains of young Emmett Hogshead,
the z enerous- hearted and heroic young
man killed in the Millboro accident, were
inferred in the presence of multitude Of
people. Rev. J. H. H. Winfree preached

tlon of his generous character. But few
weeks before, his aunt had offered to buy
farm for him if he would only leave his
perious occup ton. The family of the
deceased were present at the funeral ex-
cept his sister, Miss Cliffie Hogshead who

found this morning by Officer Doherty
at the Paducah & Memphis depot.
She was brought back to the station

and is now there. When lifted fro
the ambulance by the officer she gave
one pitiful wall, followed by another
wild appeal to the bystandors for HELM
in the name Of God and her helpless
little babes. She chung with despera-
ton to her little babe, afraid it would
be torn from her. In her distorted
imagination the faces of those who,
stood around her-strong men whose
eyes filed with tears at the sad sight
were the countenances of fends, seel,-
ing an opportunity to destroy her body
and soul. Her baby was still nm
harmed, and as her mothers walls Of
anguish rose upon the air, looked
about on those around and smiled. 1t
was a sight once seen never to be for
gotten, and enough to cause a heart of
flint to Pulsate with sympathy. Can
not something be done?
