the first time that q word has come !
from anyone who seemed all to have
any interest in the woman. outside
of her husband and his mother, and
they were very Indifferent as to the:
outcome Of the case and what might
become Of her. The mother of Mrs.
M K. Swartz, of this city, lives ct
Kingston, ILL.,, or near there, and .
few days ago Mrs. Schwartz re-
cieved a letter from there asking
about the case. etc. She was in
formed that an uncle Of Mrs, Will
hams, whose name is Lon Stevenson,
lives at that place and he wanted to
get all the papers that had anything
in them regarding the Williams case.
1t seems that since Mrs. Williams wa.
sent from her home to the training
school in Illinois the family or REL
atives lost all trace of her, and it
was only by chain of strange cir
that Mr.. Stevenson learned
that Mrs. Williams was his own
niece

known as a child about Kingston.
Further information regarding the
girls life will be secured from her

Deed.

Last Wednesday morning the

that he had been shot in the head

unknown party. Holloway's
head and face were terribly man.
gled. In looking over the ground
near where the deceased came to
his death, a mans tracks were
plainly discernib!e behind a tree,
within fifteen steps Of where the
dead body was found, ard it is
conclusive that Holloway was
killed without warning.
A coroner's jury was empanel-
ed Wednesday afternoon and
after hearing the evidence and
circumstances in the case, re-
turned a verdict to the effect that
Holloway came to his death from
the discharge Of a shotgun in the
hands of Samuel Askew. Mr..
Askew resides near where the
mur der was committed, is about
30 years of age, has a family,
and has been counted a good
citizen. Holloway was Il young
man, about q years CT age, son
Of the widow Holloway, and was
one of the best liked young men
in Richwoods township.
1t is said there had been some
trouole between young Holloway
and AskeW for some time, and
that they had agreed to meet
near the point where the killing
took place Wednesday and adjust
their differences. No weapon
was found on the body of Hollo.
way except a small pocket knife
No one witnessed the killing.
and the evidence against Askew
is purely circumstantial. 1t is
said a mans footprints ran from
Holloway's body to A8kew'f
field, and also that Askew's dog
was near the dead man when he
was discovered. A telephone
message received just before 60
ing to press stated that Askev
had not been seen since the kill.
ing, and that he is being hunted
by officers and citizens.

appearance
PHOENIX.

The solemn notes that betoken
the dissolution Of this earthly
tabernacle have again alarmed
our outer door and another spirit
has been summoned to the land
where our fathers have gone te-
fore us.
Bro. 7. F. Simpson was born
in Bedford county, Tennessee,
March 81, 1881, moved to Ar
kansas in 1914, and lived in what
is now Poinsett county until
1876, then moved to near Pough-
keep3ie, then in Lawrence toln-
ty, and lived in Lawrence and
Sharp counties until his death.
lie professed religion and joined
the M. E, Church South in 1853,
and lived a true, devoted christ
ian life, always ready to help
those in distress. For many
years prior to his death, he was
a member of Watson Chapel
church, one of the mother
churches of North Arkansas,
On May q, 1858, Bro. Simp-
son was married to Mary E.
johnson daughter OF Ira Johnson,
and to them twelve children were
born, seven OF whom are Living,
four boys, William l., John j.,
James NJ, and Thomas, and
three girls, Mrs, Ann Witten,
Mrs, R. B. Clear and Miss Lizzie.
Bro. Simpson was raised to
the sublime degree Of a Master
Mason in 1863, and remained
faithful and true to every obi
cation until his death, which oc-
Cured at 4 o'clock on the morn
ing of March II, 1904, at the age
of 72 years, II months and II
days. He was buried at Max
vile graveyard March 12, by
Curia Lodge No. IA, F. g. A. M.
The sadness of this bereave-
ment is intensified in contem-
| plation of the many virtues of
our deceased brother. Wise in
council. modest and dignified in
bearing, upright, capable and
true in every relation, his sudden
going is the occasion Of universal
regret. Let us emulate his vir.
tues that our last end may be
like his.
Bro. SimpSon was a man ol
sterling worth, possessing great
strength of character, an amiable
and loving disposition, which
cndeared him to all who were sc
fortunate as to become intimately
acquainted with him. For up
rightness of character and hon
esty of purpose he Ind few
equals, and his death leaves {
vacancy in our ranks which W.
will indeed find hard to fill. w
had been personally acquainted
with him for many years and cal
testify to his many virtues, to hi'
zeal in the discharge of every
duty and to his noble and con-
sistent exemplification of the
tsnets of our profession.
This affliction falls heavily
upon the entire family, and more
especially upon the aged com
panion, who had shared all hi:
joys and sorrows for near forty
six years.
Let US strive to meet him ir
