Roy Wsggoner, arrested herr
last Saturday on the charge o.
/ forgery, was given a preliminary
hearing before Justice Gushing
Monday afternoon and bound ovel
to the December term of circuit
court. He was released on bond
of $500 signed by his father, W,
F. Waggouer and H. E. Strickler

Young Waggouer walked into
the Benson bank shortly after

one known at the bank. He left
but shortly returned with the name
of G. T. Stutsman on the back of
the check. 1t was then cashed.
Not feeling exactly safe Cashier
Lomax called the Meadville bank
and also got in communication
with the boys father, W. F.
Waggoner, who stated he had not
signed the check nor authorized
his son to issue one on his account.
Stutsman denies indorsing the
check.
Marshal Plowman arrested Wag-
goner at the Depot Cafe and when
taken to the bank refunded the
full amount of the check but would
make no explanation of the trans
action. He was later turned over
to Constable Sayles on a warrant
issued by Justice Cushing and not
being able to give bond was taken

Deaths Ruthless Hand

more times unfavorRble. The
answer last Friday left sorrow
wherever it touched. She had
passed away early that morning at
the University hospital in Kansas
City.
Grace Frances. daughter of E.
g. and Lottie Cole. was born at
the family home near Forker
December II, 1900, and passed
away October 81, 1919, aged Is
years, 10 months and 10 days.
| She was converted several years
ago and united with the Christian
church at Sumner, and was a
faithful and useful member.
On the 10th of last August she
was taken suddenly i'll and remov-
ed to the University hospital in
Kansas City where she underwent
an operation. All the care and
love that skilled physicians and
anxious parents could devise and
apply for her comfort and assist
ance were brought into play, but
1.-THE fat of Him who rules our in
comings and outgoings had been
issued and after q ten weeks
struggle, despite the prayers and
entreaties of all who knew her,
their appeals were overruled and
just before dawn was kissed by
the rising sun last Friday the
sufferers spirit took it's fight.
No one can explain why young
lgirI. such as was Grace, should be
called from this life at eighteen.
She had not thought that was
not gentle, not one that did not
hold all the world in its arms of
kindliness. She was sorely needed
here. She was the light of the
eyes of a great company of rel
atives and friends, and the light |
has now gone out. To them she
was what the sunshine is to the
world, and this eclipse to them
brings both darkness and chill.
The remains were brought to
the home Friday afternoon and
the funeral held at the Forker
church Sunday afternoon, the
services being conducted by Rev.
j. D. Mendenhall of Brookfield.
. The remains were laid away in
the Laclede cemetery.
Her funeral was pathetic beyond
expression, for not one, as the
last good-byes were said, but what
felt that loss had been sustained
for which there is no compensation.
The flowers were many and
beautiful, but not more beautiful
than the face that rested so peace
fully among them. Beautiful in
life, beautiful in death, but far
more beautiful in the glorious
morn.
Flowers seem to be the emblem
we have to express our love, for
we wreathe them around the cradle,
the marriage altar and the tomb.
Thus would we leave her, and in
keep her, as sweetly re-
posing among the beautiful and I
flowers.
