N. P. BUCK DEAD
The Largest Land Owner in
Lafayette County Passes
Away.

N. P. Buck, a native Of La
fayette county and probably the
county's largest land owner,
died Wednesday morning, July
10, at his home near Waverly,
after a lingering illness of more
than a year.
Mr.. Buck was born in Lex
ington, Missouri, March %,
1892, and was in his SOth year.
He spent the early years of his
life in Lexington, attending the
common schools, and at the age
Of eighteen he spent one year
in the Masonic College. He
afterwards learned the car
penter's trade which he followed
for several years. In 1862 he
commenced farming near Way
erly, and continued until his
death. In 1869 he was married
to Miss Margaret Pritchard of
Kentucky, a daughter of E. R.
Pritehard. To this union four
sons and three daughters were
born and together with his wife
survive, and are as follows;
Z. O., Grover, David, Dennis,
Mrs. Leslie Corder, Mrs. VIM.
Ferguson, and Miss Mary Buck
all of Waverly.
Mr.. Buck was farmer on a
large scale. He was an excel
lent manager which is best at
tested by his remarkable success.
His industry and integrity with
his pleasing personality made
him one of the most highly re-
spected and well-liked man in
the community. He was a
member of the Presbyterian
church and of the Masonic fra
ternity. He attended to his
religious duties as he did to all
his business with devotion and
diligence.
The funeral was held from
the residence Friday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock and burial was in
the Waverly cemetery.

CONFEDERATE REUNION
September 5, 6 and 7 Are the
Dates.

The stale reunion of the Con-
Gederate veterans will be held
in Lexington September ), 6
and 7. At the meeting Tues
day night at the Elks' club
it was found that most of the
committees had organized and
had done some effective work
towards providing for the enter
tainment of the visitors.
The people in general are
perhaps not aware Of the mag
nitude of this undertaking. 1t
means the expenditure Of several
hundred dollars and a sacrifice
of time and money on the part
Of everyone in Lexington. The
benefits accruing however, from
entertaining these visitors
from every county in Missouri,
cannot be estimated in dollars
and cents. Lexington people
have always responded nobly on
ike occasions, and it is to be
presumed that they will do so
again. Open your purse strings,
your homes, and in every other
way possible help give these
veterans, their families and
friends a royal welcome.
