legal fight growing out of the acct
dental killing of james Henson, father
OF the dead boy, while employed by
the Standarc Lime and Stone Co.,
near Strasburg in December 1916. On
account of war conditions the case
was not finally disposed of until Sept.

given the widow Ettie Henson, a |
cripple, who is now the only surviv-
ing member OF the family.
