Monday morning, Aug. 27th, at
the residence of his son in-laW,
J. H. Garrison, J. E. Canan passed
out of this life. He had been con-
fined to his bed since spring and for
the last month or so has been al
most unable to help himself in any

dropsy, and death, no doubt to him,
came as a welcome relief to his suf.
tering. He was 73 years old.
After services at the Presbyterian
Church Tuesday morning conduct
ed by Rev. A. B. Haynes and Elder
Stockard, the interment was made
in the Canyon City cemetery.
Deceased came to West Texas from
Pennsylvania when every thing
west of Austin was frontier territory
and has done much in his quiet un
assuming way to aid in its present
development He had a good mind
with a decided melancholy turn,
but at all times was courteous gen.
tleman. He leaves surviving him
one child, Mrs. j. H. Garrison.

Balm VS.. Morrow.

This was case under the
statute of Forcible Entry and
Detainer, and tried by the JUS
tice Court before two juries on
the "a and 25th days of August
respectively. There was a mis-
trial in each instance, the juries
failing to agree upon verdict
and the controversy was com
promised by the parties, each
paying his own cost. The facts
are brief. The plaintiff sued
Morrow for possession OF his
residence alleging that the time
for which Morrow rented the
premises expired August 1st,
while defendant Morrow claim
ed that he had rented the pre-
misses from Hutchinson until
Jan. l, 1907. This Hutchinson
denied, but the result was as
above stated. The compromise
gives Morrow the house at $15
per month until Nov. 1st.
