vINTON KINGSLEY

V1nton Kingsley, son of Mr.. and
Mrs: George A. Kingsley died very
suddenly at his home in La Porte, Ind
last Sunday at 1890 a. m. The news
comes as a shock to large circle of
friends and comrades of Vinton's in
Wauseon who have known him from
infancy through the earlier years of
his boyhood. His father, Mr.. G. A.
Kingsley was for many years agent
of the New York Central Lines at this
and was transferred to La Porte from
here. Death came Unexpectedly; he
had some bowel trouble and a physi-
clan had been called who informed him
on the day before he died that he
would be up and about in a day or
two. Acute inflammation of the bow
els developed and he died Sunday Aug.
ust goth, as noted above.
Vinton was born at Otis, Indiana,
and was but three months past seven
teen years of age at the time of his
death; young man of sturdy Chris
tian character and welding an infu-
ence for good by his consistent life,
his departure is a real loss. The
family have the sincere sympathy of
their many friends and former neigh
bors in Wauseon.
Funeral services were held from the
residence in LaPorte Tuesday and in
terment at Clayton, Michigan.

Erie, Pennsylvania is quite a good
sized city, having its own street rail-
way and being situated fairly well in
commercial way has undoubtedly
been large help toward it's growth.
The three of us, Walter and Fred Bat

1edo at 10:30 all o. K.
After getting a FIVE necessities
such as road maps, etc., we made
ready to start; left Toledo about IL
o'clock. Soon out of the city limits
we struck some bad roads and were
forced to make a detour of six miles.
From then eon we had fairly good
roads until we reached Clyde, Ohio,
where another detour of four miles
awaited US. Here we filled up on gas
and proceeded on our way. We struck
a small burg for dinner at 1870. We
had a good stretch of road until we
came to Norwalk where we found our
first real hills. Just east of NorWalk
we came to a steep hill one fourth of
a mile long and stones on the ascent
as large as persons two hands. By
some hard riding we got over, al
though it seemed almost impossible.
We passed through dozen or more
towns among which was Oberlin
where the college of the same name
is located. Here we began picking up
the Lincoln Highway signs which we
followed. Just about seven miles from
the center of Cleveland we participat-
ed in a traffic jam, coming out all

pie think it is hard driving in the
city in day time, but rode in with no
light, following Fred and Walter on
their machine. Arrived at the Ameri-
can Hotel at 1880 where we put up
for the night. On Wednesday morn
