VIM. Mcdonald, charged with hav-
ing violated the u. S. postal laws and
obtaining a registered letter by fraud,
proved an alibi before United States
Commissioner Cupler yesterday and

the prosecution was unable to shake
him.
f Mcdonald was arrested on complaint
Of Georgia Spooner, who alleged that
he got a. registered letter belonging to
her by forging her name to ar order
for the letter. The postoffice clerks
know that some n got the register

Mr.. Duncan is survived by a wife
and four children, who have the sin
cere sympathy Of ALL
The deceased was about forty years
of age. He came to this city about
ten years abo during large part of
time being employed at the New York
store until the first of the year and it
lis believed that he lost his mind thru
his release from that position. He
had been worrying a good deal and
had acted strangely. Mr.. Duncan
was man of considerable wealth,
owning property in this city as we'll as
a large farm near Foxholm. Prior to
coming here, he resided in Missouri.
He had always been of a sunny dis
position and was regarded very high
ly by our citizens.
The following resolution of sympa-
thy for the relatives Of w. w. Dun
can, who was found dead Saturday

life, was passed by the board Of

the Supreme Ruler of The Universe
there has been removed from our
midst our beloved brother and respect
ed fellow worker, w. w, Duncan, and,
WHEREAS, The long and intimate
relationship we had with his in the
faithful discharge of his duties in the
Vincent M. E. church and the Sunday
school thereof, makes it fitting that
we record our appreciation of him,
therefore; be it
RESOLVED, That the wisdom and
ability which he has exercised in the
aid Of our church by service, contribu-
tions and counsel, will be held in
grateful remembrance;
"RESOLVED, That the sudden re-
moval of such life from our midst
leaves a vacancy and a shadow that
will be deeply felt by all the men,
bers and friends Of this church, and
will prove serious loss to the COM
Munity and the public,
RESOLVED, That with deep SYM
pathy toward the bereaved relatives
OF the deceased we express our hope
thas essn 30 great loss to us all may
be aoyerruled s,,r good by His wh5
doeth allethings well;
! u" RESOLVED, That copy of these
resolutions be spread upon the records
Of this church, a copy printed in the
local papers and a copy forwarded to
the bereaved family.
