RESTS IN A COFFIN
OF HIS OWN MAKING

NVANDALIA, Mo-, July 15-In a
coffin Of his own making, the body OF
Colonel d. w. Hughes. a former citi-
zen of Vandalia, was brought here
from Ohio and laid 10 rest in the Van
dalia cemetery.
Colonel Hughes was an eccentric, so
years old. He built his coffin over 20
years ago, while in the undertaking
business here. and kept it in his
rooms until he left Vandalia, when his
wife died few years ago. The coffin
was then placed with w. S. Waters. a
furniture man and undertaken, and ia
his establishment it had remained
ever since
? On his visits back to vandalia.
Colonel Hughes looked after his
coffin and often amused himself by
lying down in it. The coffin is a
splendid piece of workmanship and
cost Hughes many months of labor.
It is constructed of one and one-halt
inch walnut and oak in combination.
Along the center, midway between the
top and bottom, Is a hand coping of
oak. A groove on the under side pro-
vides a grip for the hand. Around
the casket on the upper edge and in
side is fixed a light, hollow gum tube,
and when the cover in in place and
pressed down by drawn hooks, 1t is
alright and water-tight.
Last November Mr.. Waters received
q letter from Colonel Hughes stating
that he was very weak and soon
would be needing his casket He
asked Waters to make certain that
the workmen at the grave placed the
coffin in the outside box. Colonel
Hughes also made the outer box
which was constructed to fit the
caskct.
Colonel Hughes had taken out q
patents in the United States and one
in the Confederate States. In 1854, al
New London, Mo. he invented a hand
corn-planter which was patented il
1856. He sold the planters at S5 eacf
and by 1860 had accumulated a for
tune.
While he was in ST. Louis the wal
opened and Mr.. Hughes went to Mem
phis, where he entered the employ o
the Confederate gun works. Whilt
there he invented a new gun which
would throw one and one-half inch
lead ball over three miles with foui
ounces of powder During the war h,
made so of these guns mounted OF
carriage wheels and he received S40C
for each of them. The gun was no
patented until the 18th day Of Febru
ary, 1853. Colonel Hughes also in
vented a wooden canteen and pro
vided several thousand for Confed
crate troops.
He also invented a wooder horsl
collar supplying the Government Will
