DEATH OF
FRANK DUFFY READ

Nervous and depressed from a re-
cent attack of influenza, Frank Duffy
Read, about o'clock Wednesday
morning, in his room at his home in
Carthage, ended his life with a pistol,
death resulting within few minutes
after the report of the gun. Nothing
unusual was noticed in his manners
except that he had been unable to
sleep we'll and complained Of severe
pains in his head. The untimely
death of this mild-mannered, kindly
disposed and generous hearted young
man caused deep sorrow and casts a
gloom of sadness over the entire COM
munity. His wife and two bright lit
tie boys, his mother and five noble
brothers survive, besides numbers of
friends. Impressive services were
conducted by Bros. E. A. Elan and
Fred B. Cox. Interment took place

FEBRUARY % SET AS DAY To
COMPLETE SUBSCRIPTIONS

Saturday, February %, being Wash
ington's birthday, is suggested as a
fitting time for Smith county to do
her duty in completing the $1,000
subscription asked for the starving
children of Armenia and Syria. The
Dixon Springs community gave an en-
tertainment last Saturday night and
raised enough money to put them over
with their quota. We suggest that
the districts, which haven't already
raised their quotas, plan enter
tainments for the afternoon or night
of Saturday, February %, for the pur-
pose of furthering their campaigns.
The 21st and 18th districts have
raised their quotas since last report.
We have not heard anything from the
End district, whose quota is $99 go
The 18th, whose quota is $219 sc; goth,
whose quota is $500; and the 23rd,
whose quota is $29.97, has not re-
ported any activities. The 10Th,
whose quota is $115.76, has sent in
$500 from a Christmas box. Just a
little work will put the following dis
tricts over: 9Th, 9Th, 7th, 9Th, 10th,
18th, 18th, 10th and 18th. The 1st
district has promised to raise its
quota.

LESTER TAYLOR RECEIVES
PROMOTION IN THE NAVY

Miss Eva Taylor of Monoville has
received a letter from her brother,
Lester Taylor, who has been in the
navy for the past several months as
engineer on large steamships, in which
he states that he has recently been
promoted and that he is now a Junior
Lieutenant instead of an Ensign, and
that he now wears one and a half
gold stripes around his coat sleeve
instead of one. Lester is a son of
Mr.. and Mrs w. T. Taylor of Mono
vile and he has many Smith county
friends who will be pleased to learn
of his deserved promotion. At the
time Lester wrote the letter, he was
in New York, and stated that they
would soon return to France. He says
that crossing is little rough in win
ter, but that he is on good ship and
they get along all right. He says he
always sees the sights when he gets
on the other side, and that he is liking
his work all right.
Miss Taylor also received a letter
from another brother, Willie d, Tay-
lor, who is with the American army
some where in France. Willie stated
that he was getting along nicely and
expected to be at home within the
next few months. He advised his
people to sow lots of wheat, as he
would be in shape to eat good lot
Of it when he got home. He says he
does not like France so well, because
it rains too much.

LOSES A GOOD WOMAN

I A sad death occurred at Nashville

ing, February 9, 1919, when Mrs.
Of T. NJ. Sanderson of Pleasant
Shade, breathed her last.
Mrs. Sanderson was carried to
Nashville some days ago and RENAME
in hospital taking treatment pre-
paratory to a surgical operation for

geon had performed his task. She
had been suffering from the trouble
for some time. Her condition became
worse continually and the operation
was advised as a last resort.
Mrs. Sanderson was fine Chris
tian and a most excellent woman.
She was loved and highly respected
by a wide circle of friends, and her

long and useful life. She was a de-
vout member of the Cumberland
years of age Aside from her hus-
band she is survived by one daughter,
Mrs. Ezra Huddleston of Pleasant
Shade, and one son, t. D. Sanderson,
a merchant of Pleasant Shade and one
of the county's most successful bust
ness men and influential citizens.
Mrs. Sanderson's husband and two
children were with her when the end
came.
The remains were carried from
Nashville via Carthage to Pleasant
Shade, where interment took place
last Tuesday in the family cemetery.
The funeral services were conducted
by Revs. J. p. Mcdonald and Wilson
Bennett.
Many friends extend sympathy to
Mr.. Sanderson, who is one of our
best citizens, and his two children in
their great loss.

JUNGLE BOB" YEAMAN HAS
PASSED To GREAT BEYOND

R. H. (Uncle Bob Yeaman, one
OF Smith county's oldest and most
highly respected citizens, died at his
home at Difficult last Thursday, Feb

stricken With paralysis, and each hour
afterwards his condition became more
serious until the end.
Mr.. Yeaman was n years of ape.
He was born and raised in Smith coun-
ty and during all the DAYS of his

that eventful struggle and participant
ed IN some of the biggest battles of
the war. He was fortunate in es-
Gaping wounds but he had the thrill
ing experiences of bullets passing
through his clothing and through the
crown Of his hat. His stories of the
war were always interesting and his
Experiences thrilling.
After the conflict between the states
was over Mr.. Yeaman returned to
Smith county and in 1865 was mar
ried to Miss Malvina Kemp, who pre-
ceded him to the grave about three
years ago. To them were born three
children, one of whom died quite
young. His daughter, Vira, who mar
ried N. B. West, also died several
years ago, leaving a daughter, Miss
Ossie West, and this grand daughter

ion since the death of his wife. His
only surviving child is Frank w. Yea
man, one of Carriages most promi-
nent business men, now connected with
the Mcclellan Nero. Co. of this city.
Mr.. Yeaman had been a devout
member of the Baptist church for
more than fifty years. He was an
honored member of the Masonic lodge.
Being a member of that order for AZ
years, he was among the oldest ma
sons in the county. He was member
of the Carthage Chapter Royal Arch
Masons. No man stood higher in
his community than did Mr.. Yeaman.
Funeral services were conducted
last Friday at the old home place,
where he had lived for many years,
by Rev. C. B. Massey. Burial took
place in the family grave yard with
the Masons in charge.
