Death Of Hannibal |. AveriIl.


Sunday morning the people of our city
were panied to learn of the death of
Hannie l.. son of G. w. and s. J. Averill.
long residents Of Dodge City. The
young man had gone to work in the hay
field Saturday morning but the men with
whom he was working noticed he was
not looking well. but be said it was only
one of his headaches. he being
subject to severe attacks. He became
worse and only drove Il few times around
the field when he had to stop. At noon
he came home and supposed the trouble
would wear off. At 6 o'clock he said he
felt better. and soon after retired; rest
ing quite we'll. His parents noticed
during the first part of the night that his
breathing was natural and he did not
seem to be suffering from any accute
pain, as was frequently the case when
afflicted with the headache. He rested
quietly after one O'Clock in the morning,
and at seven his mother went to his bed.
found him breathing easily and regularity,
spoke to him, but he did not waken. 1t
did not cause any suspicion of danger as
he appeared and looked perfectly natural.
A half hour latter looking in to bis room,
all at once his lips began to turn purple,
and she became alarmed and called his
father, who feared the worst at once.
The rest of the family were summoned
quick, and DIR. McCarty sent for in all
haste. neighbors called in but all to nc
purpose. The DR.. could not give the
parents any hope, and Hannie passed
away from earth and those who loved
him between and 9 o'clock. Sunday
morning. Oct. l1th. Hannie was born
in kingfield, Maine. April llth. 1873. The
funeral services were held at the Presby.
terrain church Wednesday afternoon by
Rev. s. f. Busser. The large church
was filled with the friends of the de-
ceased and family and many followed
the remains to the cemetery.
Hannie was youth just approaching
manhood and has from earliest childhood
been remarkably studious and mature
for his years. He was thorough in any
thing he attempted, pleasant and jovial
with others. though with quiet firm
ness that seemingly kept him free from
the temptations that beset so many IT
our youth. A kind sou and brother d
tender. helpful schOolmate. a young life
that seemed so nearly to tread in the
proper pathway that it is almost more
than mortal can do to make himself be
lieve that Hannie's place and work was
not among US for many years TO come

rackiug grief is lessened and the torturet
heart finds relief in the knowledge thai

Good Bro. Cline of the Bellefont
Ensign. is in predicament which de-
mand> the sympathy of every member
OF the newspaper fraternity. He has
borne silently and uncOmDlainingly 4
cruel wrong in being deprived of the
privilege of attending evening entertain
mentS for which an admission price is
charged. by reason of 4 lack Of the nee
eSsary ducatS and because of the fur
ther fact that Manager Pearce failed and
utterly neglected to supply our esteemed
neighbor with the magic pasteboards
which would allow him TO pass the re-
leutlesS guardian of the opera house
door. Bro. Cline endured this indignity
without a murmur until the bill poster
of Turner's English Girls struck the
town, and those beautiful pictures of fe-
male loneliness met his enchanted gaze
on every side. Then it was that the
naughty reserve of his proud nature gave
way and he resolved to feast his longing
eyes on a eight of those English Girls
in the flesh or perish in the attempt.
His first move in this direction was to
indite brief epistle to Manager Pearce
in substance as follows:
w. H. PEARCE, ESQ,
Manager Of Kelly's Opera House:
Esteemed Sir, l desire to call your
attention to the fact that this paper
has been overlooked by you with refer.
ence to complimentary tickets hereto
fore Signed: Ensign,
This diplomatic missive was Dispatch
ed by means of his son in order to in
sure its prompt and safe delivery. With
anxious suspense the venerable man
waited the return of his messenger, en-
joying in anticipation the array of Eng
fish beauties whose pictures had so at
tracted his admiration. But, alas. he
was doomed TO disappointment. The
youthful messenger returned with de-
jected air bearing the evil tidings that
the commission was intentiOnal-Our
friend sat for time unutterbly sad and
detected. Then fierce thirst for VEN
geance took possession of him. Even
the crushed worm will turn on the ruth
less foot which tramples it. and the Bit
terness of disappointment wrought this
usually placid nature into frenzy of
rage during which he wrote a most scath-
ing denunciatiOn Of those same bills
which had so enchanted his vision few
hours before. TIE last issue of this good
mans paper shows the feeling OF ioath-
ing with which he now regards this to him
unattainable entertainment. The fact is
there is absolutely nothing improper or
immodest about this company. We see
by our exchanges they have been playing
acceptably to the most refined society in
the east. Journals of high moral tone
such as the Tefesa CAPITAL speaks of 1t
i'm terms of commentator.
