S. R. Briggs, of Lincoln Township,
buried Thursday. Sister of Urich
Missouri attended, also Son
Bert, who came with her.

Mrs. S. P. Baker and Bert return
ed Sunday March 3lst, to their home
in Urich, Missouri, after attending
the funeral of S. r. Briggs, Mrs.
Bakers brother and Berl's father.
1t will be remembered that when
Bert was a tiny baby of only few
hours, his mo her and twin brother
died and Mrs. Baker took tiny Bert
to her heart and her home aud raised
him as her very own, although liv-
ing within mile of his father and
brothers, until year ago when Mr..
s. P. Baker sold his farm in Lincoln
township and moved to Urich, Mo.
Then it was that Bert, now boy of
eighteen years, could not be separ-
ated from papa and mama Baker, the
only mother and home he had ever
known. They, loath to part with
the child, proceeded to have adop-
ton papers made out aud Bert Baker
moved to Urich, Missouri, little
thinking he would be called back SO
soon on so sad mission.

railroad, December 80. last, viii be
begun by the District grand jury under
direction of District Attorney Baker.
very soon, perhaps during the latter
part OF next week.
fThe undertaking of this task at this
ti1ne practically means that neither Mr..
Baker nor those of his assistants whom
he will retain as immediate help IN con-
Quoting the investigation. will have
much. if any, vacation this summer.
From what Is already known of the
circumstances connected with the Terra
Gotta accident, and the scope which a
thorough investigation must take, it
can readily be seen that the task is one
which will demand the attention of the
grand jury and the District Attorney
nearly continuously from now until the
fan term Of the trial court is convened,
next october.
Before the matter is taken to the
grand jury room by District Attorney
Baker, il is understood he will have one
of his assistants collect and systematic
an the testimony already gathered, al
the coroner's inquest and elsewhere. and
have II ready for use when needed, for
reference at the final investigation in
the jury room.
