had been made to ship the remains to
Ontario at the Geographic request of
his father. The finding of the letter
was communicated to his relatives
with the result that they advised that
his wishes be complied with. The fun
eral services were held Friday after
noon in the Presbyterian church in
the presence of a large number of
friends of the deceased. The funeral
ritual of the Odd Fellow lodge was
read by H. C. Miller and Rev. W. J.
Richardson, after which Rev. Richard
son preached very appropriate SER
mon that found a sympathetic chord
in his hearers hearts. The choir sang
a number of beautiful hymns. The

remains were inferred in the cemetery
north Of town.
The letter found was not signed but
was in the well known handwriting of
deceased. 1t was dated Oct. 9th, and
he bid goodbye to everybody and ex-
pressed regret for the act he was
about to commit but felt that he was
becoming mentally unbalanced an
could not stand it any longer. Ee
wanted his property divided between
his father, brothers, sisters, nieces and
nephews.
Mr.. Toole had made application for
citizenship papers, and his application
was to have been passed upon by the
district court last week. He was born
in Ontario.

'The More We See of New York City
the Better We Like n. OAK"

An interesting letter was received
by the Independent from President A.
G. Crane, who is taking years spec
ial work at Columbia University. Mr..
Crane writes that he is now settled in
his new home for year, 6 Haven Ave
nue., New York City, and asks that the
Independent be sent to that address.
He says further:
"We spent a very pleasant vacation
in Pennsylvania, on the old farm. On
our return we drove the entire length
Of Pennsylvania in as straight line
as possible and found it charming
for scenery and paved roads through
the mountains and forests. The steady
work of the fall has started at the
University. am studying Admins
tration as my major with psychology
and history of education as minors.
Courses in administration are with DR..
Strayer and DR.. Bagley. The latter
has the normal school problems. The
discussions and the opportunity to
study situations without hurry and
haste are all very interesting but not
half as satisfying as finding solutions
for actual troubles in real situations
We will both be glad when we are
able to return to our friends and real
life.

notified to be ready to leave for Camp
Devens, at Aver, Mass, at any time.
He expects to serve the army in the
capacity Of printer and Uncle Sam will
find him "there" in every sense of the
word. Mr.. Davis will remain with the
Independent until he is called. We re-
gret to part with him but under the
circumstances could not conscientious
ly refuse to recommend him to Uncle
Sam.

Insurance Company Must Pay Velva

An interesting case has just been
decided by the Supreme Court of
North Dakota. Arthur B. Stearns of
Velva took out an accident insurance
policy with the Merchants Life and
Casualty Co., paying the $500 prem
ium to an authorized agent. He was
injured before the policy was written
on the company's books and payment
was refused on those grounds. The
case was tried in Ward county court
and the defendants won. Atty. John
E. Burke appealed Stearns' case to
the Supreme court and has won de-
cision.
