The announcement Of the death
OF f. p. Guerney, Jr., came as a sur
prise ana shock to the people of Wal
halla and cast gloom fover every
quarter where he was known. Few
| knew Of his illness until but shortly
| before the announcement of his death
came. Mr.. Guerney one day last
week, while at work in the plant Of
the Guerney Manufacturing Co., had
the misfortune to get his hand badly
injured, and finding that he could
not work In the plant with any sat
isfaction. he decided that he would
take an enforced rest with his wife
and child in Chattanooga. Tenn,
with relatives. He left Walhalla. by
| automobile in the afternoon Of one
day last week, and on arriving in
Seneca stated that he was not feel
| ing at all we'll. On arrival in Chat
| tanOoga he went direct from the
station to the home Of his sister,
! Mrs. i. J. May, and was put to bed
at once, as he was suffering intensely
with what, it was later ascertained,
was a severe attack of pneumonia
lie was unable to withstand the at
tack and died Sunday afternoon. His
father left here on receiving word OF
his critical condition, and reached
Chattanooga before the end came

splendid character and fine parts, and
