OF mail, but dispenser of good cheer
all the day long. He was known one
end of Harrisburg to the other and
will be missed by old and young.
Buck" Minnis was born in Elk
t1aLtoIu county, Mo-,
May 8. 1860. At the age of IL he
secured his first position in the Chesa
peake Nail Works as a. nail plate
heater. He held that position for
fourteen years and later entered the
mail service as letter carrier, which
position he held until the time of his
death.
Mr.. Minnis was prominent in frater-
nal organizations. He was known as
