MET SUDDEN DEATH.
Mrs. Leard Loses Her Life While Returning
From Church Last Sunday Evening.
A Fractions Team Goes Over a Precipice
With Mother and Son.

Mrs. Margaret Leard. mother of Willard
Leard was thrown from her carriage last
Sunday night and instantly killed.
Willard had driven his mother from their
ranch, about two miles above town, to at
tend church Sunday morning and started
home after the evening service. Mr.. Leard
had loaned his gentle team and was driv-
ing a pair of colts. After passing the
stone quarries above town and crossing
the culvert beyond, the team SHE'D and
threw buggy and it's occupants from the
grade. The fall is about thirty feet to the
creek bottom and over broken rocks they
rolled and into the creek, which at that
point is about two feet deep. William
Watson lett town about nine O'Clock going
up the creek and as he neared the cnlvert
he heard groans and recognized Mr.. Lizards
voice. Going into the stream he found
Willard on his knees bleeding profusely
from his head and holding his mothers
head just above water. Mis-. Lcard, as
ascertnined later, had been killed instantly
and Willard, though stunned by the tall,
was shortly brought To conciousness by
the cold water. Mr.. Watson helped Will
lard get the body onto the bank and then
went for Frank Daley. The later brought
the deceased to Mrs. Quinby's residence in
town. The buggy and team were in the
creek. one OF the horses being badly cut
Mr.. Leard's injuries consisted of wounds
on the scalp, though not at all serious.
The funeral was held from the Methodist
rhurch Tuesday afternoon and was largely
attended by friends Of the deceased. Rev.
L.. +. Hawk conducted the services as
SISTED by Rev. Geo. Edwards.
Willard is the sole survivor of a family
uf eight children, and his many friends can
hardly find words to express their SYM
pitthy for the young man whose life has
been one only of SORROW. The accident has
caused a hush in the community, all shar-
ing with Willar d in his bereavement. Mrs.
Leard had seen much more than her share
of trouble and was known only as "A most
motherly and Cody woman. From a
world of care she has passed to everlast-
ing rest.
