ing from the effects of bichlorlde
Of mercury poisoning, is fast re-

For many days his life hung by

Obituary.

DR.. Avis. Bennett Shelton was
born in Graves county, KY, about
three-fourths of a century ago.
He experienced all the hardshlps
and mad all joys of the average
country boy. His aspiration was
to be a doctor, and for this he
prepared himself well, and for
nearly half a century he was one
of the leading physicians OF both
Weakley county, Tenn, and
Graves county, KY. Living near
Boydsville, KY, Just on the
Tennessee side. and not far from
the corner of Henry county, Tenn,
and Galloway county, KY, he
enjoyed a large practice in four
counties.
He was the fond and loving, as
we'll as the exceedingly indulgent,
father of ten children who all sur
vive him. He was an attentive
and affectionate husband. The
splendid home he built for his own
is standing manifestation OF his
love for those OF his household.
Among his contemporaries IN
his profession, he was admired for
his ability and progressiveness;
among his friends, for all that
it takes to make a moral man OF
the highest type, and among those
of his family, for his almost un-
parallel devotion.
He died March 20, 1915, and on
the following day the funeral was
conducted in, his home by the
writer. He was buried just across
the state line in front Of the house,
in the family graveyard. W. E.
Morgan.
