Memorial exercises here Satur'
day by Post So, G. A. R., were
of more than ordinary interest
and the sixteen veterans of the
civil war attending thoroIy en-
joyed the day.
The morning was devoted to
determination and regular an
nusl meeting of Post.
At noon most excellent din
ner was spread in the Town Hall,
the Post headquarters and the
Cradle of Liberty for Sequatchie

of Dunlap, offered the blessing
and there was food in plenty
for all.

The address of Rev. Phenix,

he was conscripted, but it was
excellent.
The address of C. M. Lusk, a
prominent lawyer. of Chatta-

heard with the utmost attention.
He gave the memorial address
here last year, and made such a
success of it that he got a recall,
and he proved himself worthy.
The music was furnished by
W. C. Hill, violin, Miss Louise

gathered from those present, no
local singers having volunteered
to assist. Sequachee has lots of
talent but for some reas-

Aged Man Trapped
in Wire Fence Two
! Days and Nights

Grundy Center, Oct. 15.-Ap old
gentleman giving his name as Claude
Miller and his age as T2 years is at
Dr. Carpenters hospital in very
precarious condition as the result of
being caught in n wire fence from
which he was not rescued for two
days and two nights.
The accident happened ut farm
On the county line between Grundy
and Butler counties and mile east
OF the road leading from Grundy
Center TO Parkersburg.
The old gentleman was tramping
thru the country looking for work. In
endeavoring to reach a farm house
ne attempted to climb wire fence,
the bottom OF which was woven wire
ana thera We're two or three wires on
top. AS he was climbing the fence
his foot clipped and he fell, his foot
catching in the woven wire and he
was doubled back over the barb wire.
his shoulders resting partly on the
ground. In this position he remained
from Friday afternoon until Just be-
fore noon on Sunday.
Different ones had heard his cries
for help, but thinking 1t was a neigh
Dor driving cattle gave no attention
his calls. Saturday n farmer saw
the body hanging on the fence, but
thought 1t was an old coat. However.
not being fully satisfied with what
he had seen. the farmer made an in
vestigation on Sunday with the re-
suit that the old gentleman was
found.
During all the time he had hung
there he had to fight off the hogs to
keep them from eating him alive. IT
is believed that the hogs. did eat off
portion OF one toe.
Sheriff Bockes was called to the
farm where the old gentleman was
found Sunday noon and brought him
to town. He has been deliriotls much
of the time since. His right leg is
badly swollen and is causing great
deal of trouble. It is thought that
gangrene has set in and the chances
for his recovery are very remote.
In his rational moments he has
said he had no home, that he has
relatives, but their whereabouts are
unknown.
