Damage Suit Against the Great

-.Court Doints.

The residents of West Marshalltown
stay annexed to the city. So says jury
composed entirely of Marshall county
farmers, and as usual the farmers have
shown their good judgment. It required
but one ballot to reach this decision and
the verdict was reported to the court
at o'clock this afternoon.
The case went to the jury at 1880 this
forenoon. The attorney for the plain
tiffs. knowing that he had jury com
posed entirely of farmers, attempted to
work upon the sympathies of the jurors
in favor of those of his clients who own
lands used for farm purposes but which
were included in the recent annexation.
When the jury retired 1T was the gen
ieral expectation of the court hangers-on
that there would be either a Disagree
ment or verdict for the plaintiffs, and
that the jury, composed as it was of
farmers, would never find in favor OF
the city. The city had, nevertheless, met
the allegations with a good defense,
having shown that there is a population
OF 200 in the territory sought to be sew
cred; that there We're ninety-four chil-
dren under the age of 81 years; that OF
the heads of families a majority are en-
pIoyed or are engaged in business in the
:
city and depende 1t on the city for their
support. The testimony was largely in
the nature of Statements and opinions as
to whether or not the taxes of the prop
erty owners would be increased to de-
gree that they would not be equaled by
the benefits.
At the conclusion Of the Greene case
the suit of William II. Camp against the
Chicago Great Western railway was
called. This s an action wherein Camp
claims damages to the amount Of ST.
999.99 for personal injuries received. He
was employed as section hand and
while working in the yards Of this city
he was struck by switch engine. He
alleges that his injuries are of a per-
manent nature. The case was COM
menced at previous term of court, but
was dismissed without prejudice after
an adverse ruling by the court.

UNWILLING.

The order of the Woodmen of the
World have very pretty and service.
able custom in their practice, the
placing OF a substantial monument
to mark the grave Of deceased
brother member. BY the rules of the
order the sum of one hundred dollars
is appropriated toward furnishing
this monument, a sum which may be
added to by the relatives IL they are
so disposed. In conformity with this
general practice the local lodge had
erected a monument In Greenwood
Cemetery to the memory OF Arthur
Barrett, member of the lodge, who
died November 81, 1900, which they
unveiled and dedicated Memorial Day.
The ceremonies attending the I'M
yelling were appropriate and impos-
ing. In opening the ceremonies of
unwilling the members had arranged
themselves about the monument in
the form OF a wedge, the officers and
relatives only being admitted within
the wedge. The band played the
hymn, "Nearer my God to thee" the
quartet sang, Jesus, Savior, pilot
me-" the Commander read the dedi-
catory service; the Waterman and
Sentry placed branches OF evergreens
on the grave; the quartet sang a fu-
neral anthem; the Reader read the
dedicatory poem from the ritual; and
after this followed the unwilling, the
band playing dirge In the meantime.
After removing the veil the Com
mander, with beetle and salt dish, adj
yanced to the front Of the monument
and read the inscription aloud, then
struck the monument three times
with the beetle, saying: "Love, Hon
or, Remem brance. BY the token Of
salt, an element preservative, / dedi-
cate this monument to the memory
Of Sovereign Arthur l. Barrett as a
tribute to his worth erected by the
Woodmen OF the World. He speaks
though silent"
The monument was furnished by j.
II. Langdon who has shown great
kindness In his efforts to please and
accommodate the Camp Of Woodmen
and the relatives. II is fine granite
structure, an ornament to the GENE
terry and credit to all concerned in
its erection. 1t cost about $500.

Monday, June 3, 1901, of consum D.
tion of the bowels, Mrs August
Boles, aged % years, months and
10 days.
The deceased, Nellie May Field,
was born in this city, the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Field, Deem
Der IS, 1875 while Mrs. Field was stay
ing with her mother, Mrs. Loren
Reynolds. Her early life was passed
on the farm in Clifton, Mr.. Field
moving with his family to this city in
1890. July T. 1897, she was married to
August Boles. Six years ago she
suffered from a severe attack of spinal
meningitis with which was associated
stroke of paralysis. From the
effects of this disease her constitution
was shattered and her health declined.
She leaves a husband and an infant
child; a father and mother and a
brother, to whom in their deep sorrow
the sympathy of the whole commun-
ity is extended.
The funeral was held from her late
home yesterday afternoon, Rev. c. II.
Mcintosh conducting the service and
the remains were buried in Greenwood
cemetery.
A death like this is peculiarly sad
A young wife and mother; an only
daughter; sister of an only BROTHER.
these terms mean so much TO these
relatives in such a case She was SC
near TO father and mother; so dear to
the brother; so necessary to the hus.
band and the babe.
Nellie was a good, Christian girl,
hopeful and sunny in temperament
loving and confding. She loved
music and was delighted with flowers
She performed all her duties with
faithfulness and suffered ills with a
patient spirit, accomplishing but
hopeful.
