REMAINS OF CLARENCE TEBBETS
R,ouoh, TO This City from Scene Of Death BY
Frank Hewins.

Frank HeWinS. who went to Bethel
,ost week. TO recover the remains Of
clarence r. Tebbetts of this city. who
was killed in the Grand Trunk wreck,
last Thursday night, arrived home on
the Pullman. this morning, bringing
all that remained of the unfortunate
voung man. together with part of his
watch chain and charm by which the
remains were identified. He also had
the death certificate and other neces-
sary papers for identification and
burial.
Mr.. Hewins was seen by a Journal
man and said:
Yes. | have brought home all that
remains of Clarence Tebbetts. 1t was
q long and tiresome search and not till
1870 A. NJ. Monday. did we find trace
of the body. The wreck was frightful
one and the scene cannot be described
but must have been seen to be apprecl-
ated. From every appearance Clarence
was killed in the collision and the body
burned while the wreckage was on the
track, being pushed over the emoank-
ment with the debris when the track
was cleared, for we found the first
trace at 1890 A. NJ. Monday. down on
one side. | then suggested to the boss
in charge that we clear a strip from
the bottom right up through that sec
ton. He did so ard we kept finding
pieces of bone up to 5 O'Clock that
night We also found a large piece OF
his watch chain with the charm at
tached. | turned the remains over to
the coroner, who held an inquest at
II A. NJ. Tuesday. He was not going
to take evidence at that time, but L
insisted that enough be taken to lden-
tify the remains and the manner OF
death, which was finally done and the
remains turned over to me, and L
have brought them home. The inquest
was then adjourned till next Friday
This positively settles the fate OF
Mr.. Tebbetts and will be great relief
to the bereaved family.
The remains of Brakeman OllVer
were also identified and Mr.. Hewins
saw that the road officials notified his
family to that effect.

VALUABLE NOTE
Given by Thomas Jefferson to C. c.
 Bacon's Great-grandfather.

Darlington C. Bacon, of Imboden Lawrence county, Ark, is the posses sor of d promissory note for S5 which was given by Thomas Jefferson April [. 1913. to Edmund Bacon, great grandfather of the present holder of the paper.
 The note has long since been pald, but on account of the customs and institutions of the period when II was executed. remained in the pos session of the drawee and descended through three generations to the present owner.
 At the time the note was drawn Mir. Edmund Bacon owned farm ad- joining Mr Jefferson's Monticello place, in Virginia. Before the note was paid Mr. Bacon moved west and made his home in Kentucky. With him he brought the note. which was duly paid The mails at the time were slow and uncertain, and for this reason the note was not returned to MT Jefferson.
 This old bit of yellow mildewed paper is prized by it's owner as much for it's connection with the history of his family as for being an autograph of d famous man and written by the same hand that executed the Decla- ration of Independence.
 The note is of especial interest to collectors of autographs. It bears peculiar value from it's unusual na- ture.
 There are many Jefferson letters and papers extant, but as notes are usually returned to the drawer or destroyed when paid, such papers are not common even in the most com plete autograph collections of the country.
 This is one of the few, if not the only. Jefferson note in existence The interest attached to an auto graph of this nature is two=fold
