NJ. o. KINDIG VICTIM
OF HEART FAILURE

Friends and neighbors Of Martin
O. Kindig, aged Chippewa Lake citi-
zen, were saddened this week to
learn of his death which occurred
some time Sunday morning, follow
ing a stroke of heart failure
Mr.. Kindig had been in poor health
for a number of years, but had been
able to be up and around most of the
time. Sunday morning he got up
from bed about 8 o'clock and sat in
chair to await the coming of day.
This occasioned no alarm on the part
of his wife as Mr.. Kindig had been
in the habit of doing this for some
time past. When Mrs. Kindig awoke
later in the morning she attempted tc
arouse her husband, to find that the
spirit had fled. Mr.. Kindig was 7t
years, 10 months and days of age
He was born at Poe, this county.
He had contemplated spending New
Years in Florida, as had been thu
custom for many years past.
Besides the widow, Mr.. Kindig il
survived by four daughters-Mrs
Chas. Anderson and Mrs. Tom Part
lon, of Medina; Mrs. Sam partition, O.
Westfeld, and Mrs. F. A. Strong, O.
Chippewa Lake, and one son, Martin
of Akron.
Funeral services were held from
the late home at 1 o'clock Tuesda!
afternoon, Dec. %, with a service
from the M. E. church at Chippew;
Lake at 1870. Burial was made a

PETITION FOR PARDON.
To the Governor Of the State Of Mis-
sissippi:
We, the undersigned resident citi-
zens of Leflore County, Mississippi,
do hereby respectfully ask that Louis
Nathan, colored, who was convicted
of murder at the November, 1915,
term, of the Circuit Court Of said
County and sentenced to the State
Penitentiary for life be granted a full
and unconditional pardon for the fol-
lowing reasons, to-wit:
l. There was at the time Of said
conviction, and is now, grave doubt
of said Nathan's guilt, his plea of
~self-defense having been supported by
strong testimony.
2. From all the testimony, said
Nathan, if convicted at all, should
never have been found guilty of a
graver crime than manslaughter.
3. Said Nathan has already been con-
fined in the Penitentiary more than 8
years, during which time he has been
a model prisoner and, even if guilty
of manslaughter, he has suffered
enough for his offense.
Respectfully submitted,
E. B. SMITH AND OTHERS.
