Through years numbered with
varied vicissitudes. the subject of the
following sketch honored the editor
of this paper with his friendship
loyal and true. 1t is no wonder
then that he mingles his sincere re-
grets with the sOrrOws of others who
mourn the departure of this good
man. Bv knowing him well we hon
ored him more and add our sympa-
thies to those of other frie nds for
the family who are sorely bereaved:
Another of the old guard has been
called from the busy walks of men
into the great beyond. While he
slept quietly and peacefully in his
bed the summons came and the
spirit freed from earthly care went
to meet its maker. He had told me
that was the way he wanted to die.
He had lived long and useful fife
and was not afraid. He had lived
on the sunshiny side of life aud al
ways had pleasant smile for all.
In his youth he heard the tOcsin of
war sound through the sunny South
land and offered his body as a sac
rifce on the altar of his country. and
his comrades say, was to he depend
ed on at all times and places. 1t is
touching sight To see these old
veterans bringing up the rear OF a
once glorious army Most of them
have crossed over but their deeds of
valor and heroic struggles for the
principles they advocated shall live
in history and their memory cherish
ed by those who live after them.
He was 70 years old, a member
of the Primitive Baptist church and
leaves four daughters and three sons
to mourn his loss.

An Iowa Slrl whose sweetheart
was sentl to France with the
American forces, heard from him
two or three times after his arrival
over there, then it was some time
before she received another letter.
When it came the soldier said in
it that he was a prisoner in the
hands of the Germans but was
getting plenty to eat and had good
sleeping quarters and was receiv-
ing Kind treatment. A short
time later the girl received, by
mail, the soldiers wrist watch
which she took to the jeweler for
repairs. The jeweler found a note
in the watch, written on very
thin paper and rolled into small
wad. 1t read as follows: mo

Three miles out on the Copper
Creek road from Mt. Vernon on a
farm of our merchant, j. Fish, is
a splendid six.acre tract of wheat,
none better in the county. II
might be called volunteer crop.
as no wheat was sown there during
the year 1eI7, altho a crop from a
sowing of 1916 was reaped last
year after the whea. had reached
an advanced stage of ripeness and
1t is supposed that grains fell from
heads when being harvested
There was a crop of buckwhea,
raised on this same tract after
wheat was cut. The ground was
plowed before buckwheat was
sown.

An exchange gives an incident
that illustrates the impossibility
of telling where the trouble result
ing from a mortgage will end. A
man mortgaged his farm TO buy
his wife pair of earrings. The
wife took in washing to pay the
interest on the mortgage, and the
first day lost one of the diamonds
in the suds and tried to hang her
self in the barn, but the rope
broke and she fell on a $3.50 Jer-
sey COW, breaking Its back.
