The following obituary was hand
ed us by Mr.. W. o. Denham, of this
city, nephew OF the deceased. The
lady was a sister of the late Nathan
iel Hamlin, who resided on the
Troublesome. She and her husband
were residents of this county many
years and built cottage near the
HamIin homestead. on the land
that is now owned by Uncle Isaac
Hallock, of Oakfield:
Mrs. Rosanna Hamlin-Beck was
born in Lewis county, Kentucky, on
January 10, 1872, and died at her
home. near Bethel, Ohio, February
%, 1900, at the age of lightweight
years, one month and four days.
She was married to Hiram NJ.
Beck, at her home, in Kentucky, on
November 16, 1884. Soon after their
marriage they moved to Bethel and
made their home near this place
until the year 1856. They then NOV
ep to Iowa, where they remained
nine years, and then returned to
Bethel, and in this locality the fam
lily have made their home until now.
Her husband died in 1871. There
were four children born to them,
two sons and two daughters. Their

William, in 1863 The two daughters,
Emma and Mary, survive to lament
the loss of most dearly loved and
devoted mother. She was member

united with the Christian church,
in the twenty-third year of her life.
And though they took letters from
from the church when they moved
to Iowa, but finding no organized
congregation there, she virtually
held her membership at Bethel for
about sixty-five years.
Her memory of the events con-
nected with her personal experience
and of the times in which she lived
were most remarka BILE, even down
to her last hours. And thus anoth-
er of the mothers in Israel has de
parted, to be at rest in Jesus, one
who has kept the faith, finished the
race in the blessed hope of the
crown of life" ]. II. L.

HEARING THE
ARGUMENTS
Gilman Case Goes To The Jury
"a be Today.
81 10
OWN STORY
On The Stand, He SAYS That Sullivan
9, Was Preparing To Attack
&c @ Him.
OWN STORY

The testimony in the case Of the state
against Edwin H. Gilman, charged with
having killed Dan D.. Sullivan at the
Duggan house on Christmas night, was
finished in Judge Clancy's court Satur-
, day.
The last witness in the case was the
defendant himself. He told of the orr
gin OF the trouble which led up to the
tragedy-said it a it's inception in the
dining room of the boarding house the
evening before when, at the supper table,
sullivan had found fault with his food
and he, witness, had offered him his DO
tatoes in order to keep peace. Sullivan
had h abused him, using the vilest
language imaginable towards him., and
threatening to kill him as soon as he
got him outside. The next scene Of
consequence was enacted in the dry room
of the combination dry house, said Gill
man, when the shooting occurred. He
was half reclining on a bench in the cor
ner of the room when Sullivan removed
his coat and hat preparatory to Al attack
upon him; that the attack, with the re-
mark: I'm fix you now" was about to
be made-Sullivan was coming towards
him when in self-defense he had fired
the fatal shot.
c. F. Kelly opened the argument to-
day. He recounted the testimony given
In the case. saying among other things
that II what the four men in the dry at
the time of the shooting was true, which
was to the effect that Gilman a fired
h shot without ~provocation, a verdict
OF guilty should be returned. He refer
red to Reuben Gridley, one of the wit
nesses for the defense, as a dishwasher
WHO bad, since he left the Duggan house,
lived on his accumulated wealth.
Mr.. Kelly was followed by John w.
Cotter. In the course of his remarks
Mr.. Cotter stated that he had sympathy
for a man whose training had not been
better than to prompt him to use the
filthy language which the evidence
showed without a doubt that Sullivan
used in that dining room. He next took
up the emarks mad by Mr.. Kelly in
connection with 20-year-old Reuben
Gridley as a ~dishwasher. He said that
although Gridley worked for a living he
hight become an honorable of
the legal bar or a avluable acqui-
sition to some other profession.
He was not around begging and the fact
that he performed mental work showed
that there was something in him. The
parents OF some boys, hesaid, We're able
to give their sons an education and en-
bark them in a chosen profession, while
others We're not although their children
were just as capable of accomplishing
something in the world if given an OPP
p%ortunity to do SO.
After Mr.. Cotter a finished court adj
journed for the noon hour and on recon-
vening at 2 o'clock Attorney b. s.
Thresher addressed the jury.
The closing argument was being made
by the county attorney when the Inter
Mountain went to press and the pros
poets for the case going to the jury be-
fore the setting of the sun We're excel
lent.
