Last Friday q wave of sorrow passed
over this community at the news of
the death Of Jasper Hall.
Mr.. Hall was one of Montezuma
county, pioneers andwas among the first
70 recognize that its soil and climate was
adapted to fruit growing. He was an
enthusiastic fruit grower and set the
large orchard in McElmo canon, known
- the Galloway orchard.
He was a man of sterling qualities
and his friends were numbered by his
acquaintances. He was possessed of a
sunny disposition that impaired warmth
and cheer to all who came in contact
with him. His loyalty was such that
his friends felt his influence and real
ICED the depth Of his power, and there
is,a vacancy and sorrow in this commu-
nifty that time alone can heal.
Three children, two daughters and
. son, mourn the loss of a loving
father. A FRIEND.

Of the ladies Of the Aid, we want to
take this opportunity Of expressing our
deep gratitude to the people Of Dolores

that we would like to ask and that IL
that the people will continue to help
US by their presence in the services on

but It means much to US. '"s
