DEATHS.

TRICK.-Frederick Hetrick was
born on the third day of August,
1868, and departed this life on the
18th day of October, 1890. aged %
years, months and 8 days. Freder.
| lex Hetrick was the son OF Mrs.
Nancy Hetrick who has been a wild
ow for about twelve years. He had
been baptized in infancy and was. in
earl life, confirmed in the German
Lutheran Church of the Missouri
Synod at Accident, of which he was
member at the time of his death.
He was working for Rufus Beachy
near Salisbury and had come home
to pay his mother a visit and take
his own horse with him to the place
where he was engaged in work. He
left home on Monday, the 18th inst.
at p. IN. for Mr.. Beachy's, He had
Mr.. Beachy's horse hitched in his
buggy and his own tied on behind.
While on his way to Grantsville, Just
below the Baker bridge that crosses
the Casselmau near the new Memo
mite Church, and while in between
tine little bridges that span the
EVANSVILLE road. his horse either
took fright and made sudden turn,
or he accidentally drove to the side
of the road, when his buggy was up
set and he was precipitated into the
surging, seething current in which
he persisted. The roadbed here Is
considerably higher than the bank of
the stream, while the stream almost
touches the roadbed. 1t was here at
this curve where the accident hap.
pened. The water covered the road
bed here to the depth of several feet.
the stream being very high at the
time of the accident. Both horses
were drowned and were found not
more than so yards from the place of
the accident fast to the roots of tree
that had lodged in the stream. The
horse was still hitched to the buggy
when found while the other one was
tied on behind. The buggy-top was
torn all to pieces. The accident oc.
Cured on Monday afternoon and the
young mans body was not found till
Saturday afternoon toward evening.
The body was found between two
and three hundred yards from the
scene of the accident with the face
slightly scratched and bruised, but
in good state of preservation. On
Sunday, the 10Th inst. at 2.30 p. M.
the funeral services were conducted
by the writer in the Forks Luth-
eran Church in the English and Ger
man languages, and the body was
laid to rest in the cemetery near by.
The house was crowded and many
were unable to obtain seats. 1t was
the saddest funeral the writer ever
attended. In so far as the writer
knows. the deceased bore an excel
lent name and was young man of
steady habits. The widowed mother,
the brothers and sisters of the de-
eased have sympathy and prayers
of the whole community. May they
seek and find comfort in prayer and
communion with God, vino is able
to give them light in darkness.
