FOUND DEAD.
John Montgomery Of MaysAeld, Ken
lucky Dies Without Attention
in This Christian City.

John Montgomery, an old man,
feeble with disease and age came
here about week ago. He
was sick and feeble, and was with
out money, save few cents, which
he spent as the crvings of his ap-
petite demanded.
He did not put up at hotel Tor
the reason he did not have the cash
to Fay for board and he was too
proud to beg and not able to work.
This being the condition of things
with him, he contented himself
with keeping in the shade of a
friendly tree, hoping, no doubt, the
fever which had seized him, would
leave and he could go to work and
earn his sustenance.
Yesterday he was noticed on the
streets standing on the shady side
of the same, listening at the bells
in the city ringing out the sermons
calling our devout worshipers to
their devotions, and no doubt there
passed through his brain the
thought as to how soon it would
be before he was summoned into
the beyond where earthly bells
would no longer clang in his ears.
Late yesterday evening he was
found by the Switchmen in the Iron
Mountain railroad yards near the
coal schute lying in the sun.
They removed him to the friendly
shade of an oak tree and deposited
him on the ground,
This morning he was discovered
in the same place, stiff in death
In his pockets was found 20 cents
in money and two letters, one was
written by a lady in Dublin, the
other was from Mayfeld, Kentucky,
and read as follows;
