last week informing him OF the death oil
his brother-in-law, Edward kanter, at
his late home in Detroit, Mich. In speak
ing OF the deceased the Detroit Evening
News pays him the following tribute:
THE LESSON OF EDWIN KANTER's LIFE.
ANY young man who wants an object
lesson will find ii in the lie OF Edwin
Kanter, the venerable ex-banker who
died yesterday afternoon. He was en-
phatically a self-made man, a type OF
those pioneers who conquered the wilder
ness half IA century ago, yet he never
boosted OF his success or told the story
OF his early life except to a few relatives
and intimate personal friends. He a IA

on river and lake steamers, a weary for
tune seeker tran,ping hundreds OF miles
on foot through, the wilderness to Chi

afterward he made easier progress as IL

warmly upon him or gave him a glad
hand to help him over rough places in
the road.

best lessons to young men-tlie lessons
Of energy perseverance thrift and honesty
which enabled Edward kanter to on

only rici., but respected by all who knew
him. Hehas closed IA long and honorable
career, and leaves to his family the best
Ioi all earthly possessions, a good natne.

The Bolivar bulletin. (Bolivar, Tenn.) 1888-1946, 1896-06-19

Nashville, June 1O-Andrew Jackson,
a negro life convict sent up from Shelby
county for murder, made desperate
attempt to escape from the main
prison: jackson was shipping clerk,
and today he arranged with one
of his assistants to nail him up in a box
of harness. Jackson's other assistants
were sent to the next floor on some pre-
text, and when they returned were told
to load the box in the wagon. They
did so and the wagon was driven out
The wagon had only gotten about q
block when the driver was Mortified to
hear noise behind him and to see a
head protrude from the box. Jackson
in an instant was out, but as he jumped
from the wagon the driver shouted
'Look cutl' and policeman nabbed
him. jackson was then returned to
the penitentiary.
