On Wednesday Mrs. Williams re-

ans, a handsome woman, enjoying ex,

never known to have spoken a curt

There are five questions that battle
the police:
l. Is there one or are there more
in the case?

DEATH OF JOHN HOOD
The Passing Of a Good Man to His
Eternal Reward.

John Hood is no more. After a
long continued illness, superinduced
by his advanced years, he passed from
earth to his eternal reward on Satur-
day, July 22.
Mr. Hood was widely known as
generous and charitable man. No
worthy poor was eyer turned empty
handed from his door, and many a
needed man and woman has cause to
remember his muniiicence. Though
charitable to fault, public knowl-
edge of his benefactions was distaste-
full to him, and he invariably exacted
a promise of secrecy.
He was born in Portland Place,
near Edinburgh, Scotland, in May,
1926, and was therefore past his S0th
birthday. He was married July "a,
1891, to Miss Ellen Tracy, who pro-
ceeded him to the spirit world May
"a, 1898.
He came to Perrysburg in 1888, in
which vicinity he continued to reside
until his death He leaves no near
relatives.
The site of the soldiers Emonument
on the hill at the head of Louisiana
avenue, is a memorial to the generos-
ity of Mr., Hood, and will be the
means of keeping green the memory
OF the generous donor.
The funeral was held from the
house Monday afternoon, Rev. Lowry
of the Presbyterian church officiating,
and the interment in Fort Meigs
cemetery
