Lived in Missouri Sixty Eight Years

Lived in Missouri sixty-Right Years.
The Fulton Sun, in writing of the
death of Irwin Maddox, mention Of
which was made In Wednesdays LED
GER, says;
Died,at the home OF John SLENDER
son, Fulton, on Wednesday morning,
Nov. 10, at $50 o'clock Irvine Mad
dox, aged 70 years.
Mr.. Maddox was born near Owen.
ton, Owen county, KY, Dec. II, 1928,
and was one Of a family OF nine chill
dren, all Of whom have passed over
the river Of death, except Jacob Mad
dox, Sr., who was present to see his
brother breathe his last.
His father, Sherwood Maddox, was
born in Virginia, and his mother In
Kentucky. They came to Missouri In
1888, and settled in Fulton, where he
bought 800 acres Of land and entered
l60 acres more.
In 1851, Jacob and Irvine, after the
death of the father, began, in partner
ship, to buy out the heirs Of the old
farm, which, with their own land
made a tract of 1000 acres, remaining
undivided until 1878. They handled
mules together until 1855 when they
dissolved partnership.
Irvine Maddox was bachelor, but
lived in one of the best and most COM
modious farm houses in Galloway
county, at which place bis friends al
ways met with the warmest old-time
hospitality. He was man OF gener-
Gus, charitable nature, and a gentle
man Of sober, frugal and industrious
habits, and his friends were nu umber-
ed by all who knew him. He was not
a member Of any church, but he gave
literally to the support of churches
when called on for aid. In fact he
was a good man in every sense the
term implies. He will be missed by
his friends and family connections
and his death will be mourned by all
who knew him. A good man has gone
out from US, but his good deeds and
examples live after him.
His funeral and burial will take
place at old Auxvasse church Thurs
day afternoon at O'Clock. Rev. John
f. Cowan, D. d., will preach the SER
mon.

In recent letter from 5000 Michigan
avenue, Chicago, ILL.,, Mr.. Moody says
the following:
"For over twenty-five years suffered
from catarrh, and for over ten years
suffered from catarrh of the stomach
terribly.
81 have taken all kinds of medicines
and have been treated by all kinds OF
doctors, as thousands Of my acquaint-
ances are aware in different parts Of the
United States, where I have travelled,
but my relief was only temporary, until
q little over year ago started to take
Peruna, and at the present time am
better than have been for twenty years.
"7he soreness has left my stomach
entirely and am free from Indigestion
and dyspepsia and viii say to all who
are troubled with catarrEi or stomach
trouble at aHy kind dOn'f put ii off
and suffer, but begin TO take Peru1a
right away, and keep II up until you
are cured, as you surely viii be II you
perseVene.
any wife, as many in the southwest
can say, was troubled with bad cough
and bronchial trouble, and doctors all
over the country gave her up to die, as
they could do nothing more for hor.
She began taking Peruna with theresult
that she is better now than she has been
I'm years, and her cough has almost left
her entirely. The soreness has left her
lungs and sheis as well as she ever was
in her life, with thanks, as she says, to
Peruna. Yours very truly,
T. P. Moody.
Catarrh assumes many forms and at
tacks many organs. Colonel Moody had
catarrh Of the stomach, while his wife
had catarrh Of the lungs. Both were
cured by Peruna, simply because catarrh
is catarrh, wherever located. 1t may
attack one organ or another. It may be
chronic or acute. 1t may cause one q
slightinconvenience or great suffering.

THE POT HUNTERS MECCA.
Macon County Judge Says He Would
Not Enforce New Game Law.

MACON, Nov. 13. = Squire A. II.
Love, the Macon justice who gives the
bride a spoon with her name on it
whenheperforms a two-dollar wedding
has announced that II he is called
upon to construe the new Missouri act
In relation to game that he will de-
clare it unconstitutional.
sThere never was a more senseless
law put on the books" said "the
court to-day. Suppose own a sec
tion Of the Charlton bottoms and 20
out some nice afternoon and kin acOu-
pie of dozen quail. Ican't eat them
all; don't want to give 'em away, and
the law says shan't sell 'em although
I killed them on my own premises, and
for all | know they've got most Of
their living off them There's more
than enough quail over there on the
river for every family in Macon coun.
ty to say nothing Of ducks and prai-
rie chickens, and yet this fool law
comes in and says the man who likes
'em can't have those delicacies till he
learns how to shoot straight. If that
is good law Missourians won't eat
quail and prairie chicken, I'm afraid,
till the five year limit is up. You can
say for me right here that If any poor
devil of hunter is taken up for sell
ing quail and can get his nose into my
temple Of Justice I'll see that he's a
free man in plenty of time to get back
to the bottoms and get in a pretty fair
day with the birds"
at this season the river bottoms are
alive with birds and the hunters are
thick. No sales have been detected
yet, but it is more than likely the law
will be tested here before the month
is out. Session acts of the last Legls-
lature says: "It is unlawful for any
person to sell, or buy or offer to buy
any quail, plnnated grouse, prairie
wild deer or wild turkey in
this State for five years, out this shall
not apply to game shipped in from
other states or tprrftorieg. y

points involved in the divorcement Of
bis insane wife by Henry NJ. Flagler,
the Standard Oil multi-millionaire,
will, IT may be supposed, be freely
discussed by the press and by the cler-
gymen of those denominations which
are especially emphatic in their insis-
tence on the sanctity of the marriage
relation. The question will at once
arise whether any form Of unavoidable
misfortune, such as mental disorder
or physical affiiction, can be held as a
valid ground Of separation. For bet
ter for worse, for richer for poorer, in
sickness in health, to love and to
cherish until death do us part" is the
solemn obligation employed in the
performance Of the marriage ceremony
and assumed by those who elect to
tread the path Of life together. The
allegation that Mrs. Flagler Is incur
able, and that she can never again be
restored to her family, will not, in the
Judgment Of most people, alter the
moral aspects Of the case. 1t does not
lessen the obligations which Mr.. Flag
Ter took upon himself when he mar
rled bis wife. She is in no sense
accountable for her inability to take
the place in her household which she
would occupy II she we're In possession
OF her faculties. She has done moth
ing to warrant her husband In putting
her away. She has been visited by
mournful and terrible calamity, which
it would seem should be regarded as
the very last grounds for enforcement.
Public opinion In regard to the affair
will not be in the least modified or
eonciliated by the knowledge that it
was Flagler's wealth which enabled
him TO secure the enactment OF the
law In Florida which gave him the
release be asked for from his insane
wife. The story that Flagler desires
10 marry again will be accepted by
bhe public as plausible and probable,

sentiment which his conduct has
