PASSING OF OLD RESIDENT

Herman Meissner, one of the Oldest
residents of Mason Valley, passed away
at his home in the valley last Saturday
afternoon, August /, at O'Clock. Mr..
Meissner had been a sufferer from heart
trouble for some years past, and for the
past four or FIVE months his condition
had been such that the end was looked
| for at any time. On the sixth of July
Mr.. Meissner left here for California,
where he consulted the best specialists
to see if he could not obtain a cure for
his ailment. They offered him no en-
couragement, and on the 31st OF last
month he returned from California to
his home. The next day he passed
away The disease that carried him OH
was Inflammation of the heart.
Herman Meissner was the eldest son
of c. F. Meissner, and one of the oldest
residents of this valley, having located
here with his parents and other brothers
in 1854. He was so years of age and
native of Keokuk, Iowa, having come
here when lad of eight years.
During his life here he was engaged
in the farming business with his father
and brother. He had many friends as
he was of pleasant disposition and hon
est and upright in his dealings with his
fellow man.
To mourn his loss he leaves an aged
father and mother, a brother, c. F.
Meissner, Jr. and sister, Mrs. Charles
Johnston, all of whom are residents of
this valley.
The funeral of deceased took place
from the home ranch on Monday of this
week and was very largely attended by
friends, Rev. G. w. Beatty officiating,
and the funeral being conducted under
the auspices of Hope Lodge, F. and A.
NJ, of which deceased was a member
while in life.
The floral tributes were profuse and
beautiful, and long line of carriages
containing sorrowing friends followed
the remains to the cemetery where the
last sad rites were performed and all
that was mortal of an upright and re-
spected citizen and loving and dutiful
son and brother were consigned to their
last, long resting place.
The Times joins with the many friends
of the family in extending heartfelt SYM
pathy in their hour of deep tribulation.

Exaggeration No. One

From now on the various fishing and
camping parties will be returning and
we expect to have at least one fish story
a week for our readers. The first ones to
return arrived home the first of the
week and were Messrs. F. S. Lamber-
son, w. A. Patterson, Jim Quinlivin and
S. l.. Horner. They were only gone
about IL days, four days of that time
being taken up in travelling. They
killed rattlesknake going out and used
his rattles for dinner bell on the trip,
and also found them handy to scare
away bear that insisted on camping
with them. But speaking of fish, at the
end of the first day there was not man
in camp that had education enough to
figure up the number of pounds of trout
that had been caught. Lamberson
caught one trout that was SO large that
it took all four of the party three meals
to eat it up. The tails of the trout were
used as fans to keep off the flies and
mosquitoes. AS only one lead pencil
was taken on the trip it was impossible
to keep track of the number of trout
caught the last three days. The last
days catch was loaded on two wagons
and brought to Yerington. The trout
were fine, as the writer ate one of the
smallest ones (weighed 3 pounds) which
was left at the Grotto and cooked by
Miss Murphy. Next.

While large number of our promi-
nent citizens and society folks have gone
on camping trips there are few who
have remained at home, for good and
sufficient reasons. Among those who
are not on vacations we might mention
Attorney Miller, who has remained in
town in order that he might receive
daily wireless messages from the States
regarding the political situation. He
received word Monday that New York was
safe in the Democratic column; on Tues
day there were signs of a landslide in
Indiana; on Wednesday the Republican
leaders in Missouri had conceded vic
tory to their opponents; on Thursday
Bryan's majority in Texas was increas-
ing hourly; yesterday the Philippine
Islands were in doubt and today Attorney
Miller and his friends are celebrating a
complete victory.
City Councilman Ross, ever faithful to
the dear people, is compelled to remain
at home and attend to his duties
as public servant, the rest of the coun-.
Gil all being absent. Among other things
it was necessary to decide what direction
water should come from and whether it
could be made to run up hill. There
are those who do not appreciate the
work of our council, but they have the
full sympathy of the Times man.
F. W. Fairbanks has remained quietly
at home, but there has been faraway
troubled look in his eyes, and his
Thoughtful manner has been noticed BY
his many friends. He is waiting pa
tiently for message from headquarters
that he may know what the Republicans
are expected to do in Lyon county. 1.-THE
dense silence is still unbroken and he
will probably remain at home all sum-
mer.
Tom Comerford has had bunch that
his affinity" will arrive before Thanks
giving and he is waiting and watching
for the automobile to bring from Wa
buska the lady that he longs for.
When asked by our reporter why he
had not gone camping, Nick Hirony-
nous smiled family and repeated the
name of popular song Ny wife won't
let me-
Vic Bernard said he would enjoy So
journ in the mountains, that he loved to
gather sweet smelling flowers by day
and sleep by the babbling brook at night.
but he couldn't take vacation this year
unless the Bodie brewery shut down and
refused to furnish any more steamed
beer.
Assistant Cashier George Willis, who
is also secretary of the Wilson Gold
Mines company, is kept so busy recording
new strikes at the Mountain View prop
erty that he has not had time to even
think of a vacation.
H. Samuel is at home; he says walk
ing is poor and he has corns on his feet,
besides business is good.
-. Noble, the irrepressible at
Lanl's, could not really think of going
away for another month; no, indeed;
there are several little details to be set
tied, special sales, extra purchases, jew
elry and things.
+. ]. Vicks was very shy, did not care
to tell the reason; says he is not finan
cially embarrassed, that he can go if he
wants to, would enjoy vacation; then
blushingly admitted that he could not
tell the truth about why Yerington was
so facinating, so preferred to say nothing.
To be continued.

to his friends who called when the
word went forth that one about to die
was waiting for the end His only
sions of the final stage of rabies might
prove too narrowing for his family to
witness, the terrifying cries too heart
rending for them to hear. So he asked
DR.. Culihan to keep close when the
period of delirium began and to be lib
eral with chloroform, opium or what
ever might avail to stupefy and to
soothe.
Faithful to his trust, DR.. Culihan
hardly left the bedside of his patient
and friend until the end. From early
Tuesday afternoon until he died DIR.
Marsh was in state of almost COM
plete Inconsistencies, induced by
sedatives. Death came gently and
peacefully.
None of those who sat in conference
with DR.. Marsh until nearly midnight
Monday would speak of the occur
rences in detail. 1t was in the library
of his home that he had gathered
them together-his wife, his sons and
daughters, his son-in-law and his law
yer. There was the will to be drawn
up, and that done, with the distribu-
ton of his personal property arranged
for, he turned his attention to the
future of his children.
DIR. Marsh was 81 years old and had
lived in Flatbush nearly all his life
He had travelled extensively in South
of invention by his friends. He is sur
vived by widow. two daughters, one
of whom is married, and three sons,
the oldest Of whom is mechanical en-
.gineer in the employ of the Panama
canal commission and is at present on

TORTURED SIX MONTHS
BY Terrible Itching RECONNAISSANCE
Suffering Was Terrible - Soon
Entirely Cured by Cuticura.

Eczema appeared on my sons face.
We went to doctor who treated him
for three months. Then he was SO bad
that his face and head were nothing
but one sore and his ears looked as il
they were going to fall OFF, so we tried
another doctor for four months, the
baby never getting any better. His
hand and legs had big sores ON them
and the poor little fellow suffered so
terribly that he could not sleep. After
he had suffered six months we tried
a set Of the Cuticura Remedies and
the first treatment let him sleep and
rest well; in one week the sores were
gone and in two months he had clear
face. Now he is two years and has
never had eczema again. Mrs. Louis

New York.-Fulfilling the terms OF
the death sentence pronounced upon
him on Monday, when he was told he
must die before Thursday, DR.. Will
liam II. Marsh succumbed to hydro
phobia Wednesday afternoon His
last hours were eased and rendered
unconscious by opiates administered
by his physician, while his family
hoped against hope that science might
for once be in error.
Not for moment had Dr. Marsh
however, deluded himself with false
hopes. With the death warrant of the
physicians of the Pasteur institute
still ringing in his ears, he made his
Will, called his family and business as
sociates into council and gave them
explicit directions for the conduct of
his business and personal affairs, after
ne should have gone from them, and
calmly prepared to die, as he had
lived, like a man.
You will die before Thursday noon.
No human power can save you" That
was the dictum of Dr. William L..
Wheeler of the Pasteur institute, de-
livered one Monday recently. 1t
struck DR.. Marsh like a blow between
the eyes, but he stood up to it man
fashion.
Il have seen some pitiful sights, but
l never have been so moved as l was
by the calm courage, the splendid
heroism of DR.. Marsh when 1 told him
there was no hope for him." said DR..
Wheeler.
Returning with his physician, DR..
H. M. Culihan, to his home in Brook
Ign, DR.. Marsh Immediately began to
make plans for the future of those
near and dear to him. Himself a
graduate in medicine, he knew science
had said it's last word and his fate lay
on the knees of the gods.
Il am not afraid to die. The past
hides nothing that should make me
ashamed to face the future" he said
