Obituary..

Oliver Herbert Terrell was born at
Decatur, Illinois, Oct. 20, 1895. The
following spring the family moved to
Iowa and settled on farm near Web
ster City. They continued to farm for
about eleven years. Since 1907 they
have resided in town. Oliver attended
the Webster City schools for several
years In 1916 he went with Company
&C., of which he was member, to the
Mexican border. After his return
home with his company he received
his discharge and later was transferred
with others to the Rainbow division OF
the American EXpeditionary Forces
and soon was sent to France.
His war record was highly praise
worthy and he was several times cited
for bravery. He was in three OF the
major engagements in France. Among
them were Chateau-Thierry and AT
gonne Forest He was wounded sew
eral times, but on recovery he each
time returned to the ranks to continue
the struggle. On the last occasion he
was not only wounded, but severely
gassed, and on cOnvalescence he was
invalided home in the spring OF 1919.
Such had been his experience in the
army and the nature Of some OF his
wounds, that on his return home he
was nervously undOne. He could not
act normally. He could not control
himself to remain sitting for more than
a few moments and often would eat his
meals standing or walking the floor.
He could not retire with the assurance
of comfortable sleep and sometimes
would remain up for an hour or two
because he could breathe easier out OF
doors than in bed. After retiring 1t
was equally difficult to think OF rising.
Like many other nerveatics he found
his greatest relief in some form of ex-
element. He took his greatest delight
in automobiling. In his quieter hours
he was inclined to brood over his
future. He often remarked that he
was of no use to himself or any one
else. His wounds incapacitated him
for hard manual labor and wrecked his
nerves for any sedentary or profess
sional calling.
His brother, Walter, had just sue
ceetled in negotiating a position for
him in the Ames veterinary college.
But he felt compelled to decline the
opening, even though it was secured ut
his own request. His brothers in Cali
fornia had invited him to visit them
and try the effect Of that climate on his
nerves. He was making full plans Tor
his going when the end came. While In
many ways he was an enigma to HIM
self and his nearest friends, he yet
possessed traits which greatly COM
fort them now that he is gone. He was
clean in his life. He used neither
tobacco, nor liquor. nor profanity III
his habits. During his experience in
the army he was one Of the few boys
in the company that eschewed games
of chance and cards. His tragic end Is
known to us all. While he and another
boy friend We're speeding high pow
cred automobile the car overturned
resulting In wounds which caused his
death about an hour later. NOtwtth-
standing his condition, he retained
semi consciousness to the end. He died
in the hospital Monday, August III,
about o'clock, aged % years. e..

DECISION IN !.
BUCHANAN CASE
Senator ID. C.. Chase Receives
Copy of Decision Grant
ing Child to
Aunt.
BEST FOR THE CHILD
No Ruling on Extradition
Proceedings Be
+! gun.
BEST FOR THE CHILD

A copy of the decision handed down
by the superior court Of New Hamp-
shire, granting Miss Ella Forbes
Buchanan, former school nurse here,
the custody of her niece, has been re-
ceived in this city by Senator D. C.
Chase, who assisted Miss Buchanan in
her fight to secure custody of the child.
The courts of Iowa had granted the
child, Constance Hope Winter, to her
father, Nicholas Winter, and the deci-
sion of the New Hampshire court re-
verses that handed down in Iowa.
The aunt, and sister, Miss Helen
Winter, are alleged to have abducted
the child from Ottumwa, Oct. 13, and
taken her to New Hampshire, where
they were located several months later.
Extradition proceedings were immedi-
ately begun for their return to Iowa
and the extradition papers We're sigh
ed by the governor Of New Hampshire,
STIMULATING, however, that the defend
uAtS UC SlSCu d IcAlSOIluulC llAC ~
bring habeas corpus proceedings. This
they did. The father at the same time
filed his petition, seeking to regain
custody of the child by virtue of the
Iowa courts decision.
Both Tried.
Both cases were tried and after TAX
ing all evidence, Judge I. L. Marble,
missed the fathers petition, finding
that the child's welfare would be best
promoted by permitting her to remain
with her aunt and sister. No ruling
was made OH the extradition case
which was transferred to the supreme
court Provision was made, however,
that should the defendants be surrend-
cred back to this state, temporary
custodian will be appointed for the
child
The letter received by Mr.. Chase
here Is from Frank p. TiltOn. Miss
Buchanan's attorney at LacOnia, N. H.,
and declares that Miss Buchanan lis
very naturally much pleased at this
decision of the court and greatly appre-
ciates the splendid help which she re-
ceived from you in the preparation and
presentation Of the Webster City evil.
dence."
Miss Buchanan's fight for possession
of the child has been long one and
was carried through the supreme court
of this state which awarded the child
to the father. 1t was after this deci-
sion that the aunt is alleged to have
abducted the child.
