Dear Editor:--Am sending you the
history of a boy who was born in your
county and had many friends and rel
atives in Lawrence county who will be
interested in the following:
The name Of this young man was
Ossie Rigsby, son of j. b. and Fannie
Rigsby He was born June IL, 1887.
and died Feb. 10. 1919, age 81 years,
months and / day His death came
so suddenly 1t was a great shock to
his many friends.
He had lived here nearly all his life,
his father having moved here from
Lawrence county. KY. when he was
just small boy. He was the only son
and was the pride of the family He
left a father, mother, four sisters and
a loving wife and baby to mourn the
loss. His short life was a life of pur-
ity one that every young man would
do we'll to follow. He was never a
wicked boy, always seemed to be very
ready to do what was right, and to
always abstain from evil. He was a
Master Mason, had his membership
with that order at Crum, w. Va. He
was ever ready to do you kind act
and always met you with smile. He
had no harsh words for anyone and
to meet him was never to forget him.
but to love him.
There never was a boy that had
more friends and fewer enemies than
Ossie. He was true christian boy,
having Joined the church about four
years ago, and was dearly loved by
all the members Of the Enthusiastically
after he was converted he marriedMiss
Ora Tomblin, a girl whom he had gone
to school with many a day. She being
christian girl, was his choice. They
seemed to get along SO we'll and SO nice
their home was almost paradise OF
love and kindness.
Ossie was sick about one week with
influenza followed by pneumonia. Ev-
erything that willing hearts and kind
hands could do was done to save him,
but the end came. God who does all
things right called him home to that
celestial city, where all the righteous
dwell. His father, mother and loving
wife stood over him day and night
until the end. Even in his last hours

DR.. w. A. Evans, prominent health
authority and writer Of Chicago, today
predicted that the world would again
be swept by an epidemic of influenza

be alleviated or exterminated is by
following the advice Of the medical

Influenza can be prevented; last
years results prove that. AS a pre-

pronounced success. Turpo is an
effective germicide, combining the old

catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness,
and that Is by a constitutional remedy.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an inf1amed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inf1amed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and his tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases of Deafness are
caused by Catarrh, which . an inflamed

are many stories of different ghosts
In various forms, but the most aston

church organ.
Hears Ghost Play.
81 have heard the ghost play twice
myself" said the Rev. Archer Shep-
pard, the vicar. "Some ~neighbors
brought the matter to my notice
first. They heard the sounds when
they we're walking by the church n
afternoon, and thought that it was my
organist practicing. They found,
however, that the church was locked
up.
'The first time l heard the ghostly
playing was while I was gardening.
1 believed that the who clean
ed out the church was allowing her
child to use the organ, and l went to
see into the matter. The music stop
ped when l was a few yards from the
church, and I found that the building
was locked and empty"
"This ghost was at Avenbury before
MI. Sheppard became vicar" said Col

story, but he did not believe it until
he heard the music himself. My chill
