able resolutions expressive of the
sentiment of the bench and bar on
The death of the late Judge S. L.

On Tuesday, the committee made

official journal for publication.
The resolutions follow:
To the Hon'l. John Dale, Judge of the
Tenth Judicial District Court, hold
ing Sessions in and for the Parish of
Tensas, Louisiana:
We, the undersigned, appointed as a
committee from the Tensas Bar to pre-
sent to this Honorable Court resolutions
commemorative Of the death OF the late
Hon. s. L. Elan, report as follows:
In the death Of Judge s. L. Elan this
District and this bar has lost a distin-
guished citizen, trusted and respected
member OF our profession, lawyer who
enjoyed the confidence and employment
of large and appreciative clientele.
The deceased had compelled success by
an untiring industry and an answering
devotion to bis duty as he saw it, and to
his own efforts alone was due his promi-
nence and his material requirements.
Through the same characteristics he had
attached to himself clientele that
brought to him its affairs, with sense
of absolute confidence in his capacity and
integrity to serve their interests to the
highest purpose.
In his early career he had held public
office and throughout his entire manhood
he had been prominent in the political
life OF his district. always a loyal Demo-
crat and sincere advocate of the high
est interest and welfare of his State, his
district and his parish.
As a Confederate soldier he accepted
uncomplainingly the hardships and trials
that were so much part OF the life Of
those who championed the Southland's
cause.
Having keen appreciation of the ma
terial loss to this district and this bar by
reason of the death of Judge s. L. Elan,
we ask leave, in behalf of those whom we
represent, and especially of the members
OF the Tensas Bar, to extend to the fam
lily of our deceased brother lawyer our
sincerest coincidence.
We reqest that this report be accepted
by this Honorable Court, be made part
Of the archives thereof, a copy thereof
spread upon the minutes, and a copy
furnished to the public journals of this
district, and to the family of the de-
ceased.

DAVID WINEY
NOW ARREST
Dies at CIarinda on Monday, July
2sth, at the Advanced Age Of
Seventy-Eight Years.
FORTY YEARS IN CRAWFORD co.
For the Most Part of This Time Mr..
Winey Has Resided on a Farm
North of Deloit.

1t is with deep regret that the Re-
view chronicles the death of Mr.. David
Winey, who passed away at Clarinda
on Monday, July 28th. He was one of
the pioneer residents of Crawford
county, having made his home among
us for over forty years. Although his
death has been expected for several
weeks, it came as shock to many.
Mr.. Winey had been in poor health
for the past two or three years and on
account of his advanced age was con-
siderably broken down in health. For
time his children cared for him, but
last spring it was thought best to take
him to Clarinda to the state institu-
ton, where the facilities for caring
for aged and infirm persons are better
and it was there that Mr.. Winey
passed away.
David Winey was born the 25th
day of March, 1885, in Juniata county,
Pennsylvania, and was at the time Of
his death over 78 years of age. He
moved with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Isaac Winey, to Scott county, Iowa,
in 1882 where he resided until he was
married to Caroline Albright at Clin-
ton, Iowa, in February, 1862.
Mr.. and Mrs Whey came to Craw-
ford county in the spring of 1872, To-
eating on farm three miles north Of
Deloit where he has since resided.
and where he followed farming as an
occupation all the years of his long
active life He had seen all the i'm
provements in farming machinery
from the fail to the threshing machine
and had taken advantage Of all such
improvements.

CLAIMS VICTIM
Miss Irma Uhde, Denison High School
Teacher, Meets Death at Lake
on Tuesday Morning
HEART FAILURE CAUSES DEATH
Plunge in Cold Water Said to Have
Caused Shock to Heart, Re.
sutng in Death.

The startling news reached Denison
Tuesday morning that Miss Irma
Uhde, teacher in the Denison
high school,, had been drowned at
Lake Okoboji, just off the pier at the
Lally cottage that morning at $3.50.
When found the body was lying in five
feet of water near the pier.
AS near as can be learned Miss
Uhde arose somewhat earlier than U.s.
ual for morning plunge in the lake.
There was no one else belonging to
the cottage nor near there who had
arisen. A native of the lake was the
last person to see Miss Uhde and his
explanation is that she was seen 60
ing to the pier attired in her bathing
costume; moment later she plunged
into the water. Nothing was thought
Of this until the stranger did not
notice her about the pier after the
plunge, and he Immediately began an
investigation, going down to the pier
and not being able to see her he be-
gan searching the immediate lake,
when he discovered the body as above
described
There being no men folks staying
at the Lally cottage, Mr.. E. Gulick
was Immediately telephoned and took
charge of the remains, notifying the
coroner and calling in physicians. The
physicians, after a thorough examina-
ton, gave it as their opinion that
death was caused by heart failure, as
there was not enough water found on
the lungs to cause drowning. 1t is
thought that the shock from the plunge
ii+e.he cold water was too much for
the heart and death came immedi-
ately. Miss Uhde had often complained
of having weak heart.
