A youngster of the masculine persua-

his beauty but are banking strong on his
intelligence because of great resemb-

pose to call him Judson LsMoure

The accident which cost MIR. William
Ritchey, of Hannah, his life was caused
by boy suddenly jumping out Ct the
grass and waving his arms, which caused
the horse to Jump sideways, throwing
both Mr.. and Mrs. Ritchey out of the
buggy. Mr.. Ritchey struck the ground
in such manner as to break several ribs,
one of the broken ribs entering his lung.
He lived four days, death being caused

ergetic manner in which the boy carried
out his instructions undoubtedtedly cos,
