DEATH COMES TO
JOSEPH c. PORTER
Illness Terminates fa-
tally On Last Monday
Morning.

Death on last Monday morning re-
moved one of the best known men in
Breckenridge county when Mr.. Joseph
c. Porter passed away at his home in
Cloverport.
Mr.. Porter had been suffering for
about two years from the effects of a
cancer, and for some time his family
and friends, as we'll as himself realized
that death was only matter of short
while. The end came at $50 O'Clock,
and surrounding the death bed were
his wife and several children.
All that skilled medical treatment
could do to affect a cure of the fatal
disease that was making fast inroads
upon the health of the deceased was re-
sorted to by the family in the early
stages of the malady. He was taken to
Louisville and underwent treatment
from a specialist, but with very little
relief.
Mr.. Porter was in his SEVENTEEN year.
He was born in LaRue county, on a
farm adjoining the Lincoln birthplace,
in October, 1869. He came to Clover
port when in his nineteenth year and
had resided here almost continuously
since.
Mr.. Porter was twice married. His
first wife, who preceded him to the
grave many years, was Miss Josie
Compton, of Cloverport. OF this union
there are four living children, namely:
Mrs. Alice Williams, of Weightman;
Mrs. George Mullen, of Cloverport;
Mr.. Edward Porter, of Owensboro, and
Mr.. Samuel Porter, of Nation, Ills.
His second wife, who survives him, was
Miss Elizabeth Byers, of Owensboro.
Mr.. Porter had always taken an ac-
tive interest in the affairs of Brecken-
ridge county and gave his best energies
to her welfare. He was one of the best
known and most highly respected citi-
zens. He served the county many
years ago as deputy sheriff, and offici-
ated in the capacity of constable in the
Cloverport district several terms.
Deceased was a member of the Bap-
fist church and performed his obliga-

In speaking of the next years crop
one who has long been familiar with the
tobacco interests of the county. said:
ut is very evident from the talk of
the farmers that smaller acreage will
be put to tobacco this year than last,
but when it comes to putting out the
plants would not be surprised to see
the average acreage in tobacco. At
present, however, the talk among them
is for quality, not quantity, and be-
leve that strict adherence to this rule
would bring the desired results that the
tobacco growers of the county are strv-

the death Of young Miller it is said that
the trouble originated at Hardinsburg on
the first day of Circuit Court, and that
since that time on several occasions the
Powell boys had threatened Miller. It
is alleged that on the afternoon previous
to the killing the Powe.ls had sent word
to Miller that they intended to run him
out of the Glendeane neighborhood

Miller and lived near Jolly Station. He
was young man Of good character and

was also a Mason of high standing.
Honest, upright and ever ready to ex-

Porter won the friendship and admira-

many sorrowing hearts that followed
his body to the grave spoke volumes in
praise of his innumerable good quail
ties.
The funeral took place from the Bap-

lodge of Masons. The burial was in
