their own death notices II never

said in a Republican club up town,

Were YOU actually dead ?" asked n

NO, not even in cataiep;io way
IL was a case OF mistaken identity. but
II enabled an editor down south 20 get
good thing off on me. Several Years
ago was helping the Republican
county committee To stump this city
for Morton and Saxton. One dav
there appeared "A dispatch in the morn.

have such a mark on my left arm, and
all my friends in West Virginia. where

in my congressional district, and even
out of IL, published obituaries that /
could take no exception to whatever.
One of the papers, however, that had
the most flattering account of my
career, closed it in this way We
have known Mr.. Kemple, loved him,
hunted with him, laughed at his chest
nut jokes that took on new vitality
and coloring by his telling and have
seen him in many conditions OF genial
fellowship, but never in our widest
and Hioat optimistic moods could we
ever conceive OF him dying through
the agency of water"
How did you correct the impression
