General Frank Wolford, removed,
with his family, from Columbia to
Louisville, where he was busily en-
gagged, doing well, until a short time
ago when he became afflicted. His
affection became serious and though
he received the best medical atten-
ton, death came last Wednesday
morning. He was about forty-six
years old, and the major portion of
his life was spent in this place, he
having come here with his parents,
from Liberty, KY, when he was a
very small boy. When he grew to
manhood he was one of the indus
trious men of this place, not afraid of
work, hence his time was proftably
employed.
When quite young man he was
married to Miss Robbie Fulks, IN this
place, who survives him, and also sew
eral children.
The remains reached here last
Thursday afternoon and after a short
funeral service in the Christian
church, the body was buried in the
city cemetery by the side of loved
ones. Many of the deceased old
friends were present to pay their re-
spects to one they knew so well il

Church, Rev. R. V. Bennett oficiat

Overland Trip.

There are advantages and disadvan-

mobile, but as a general thing the
little Ford goes right along.
Last Wednesday morning Mrs.
Daisy Hamlet, Mr.. J. o. Russell, Mr..
G. T. Suits and ]. E Murrell started
on a business trip to Greensburg. 1t
was smooth sailing until we reached
the White Toll Gate where we took
the dirt road leading across the coun-
try, interesting the Greensburg pike,
a distance of five miles The first
three miles were covered by the hard
est, but when the hill, this side OF
where Crit Yates lives, was reached

would have to secure team to pull
the machine up the hill. There was
one coming in sight, and Count ap-
preached the driver, who very politely
informed him that his horses we're
out of wind, and that he could not
render assistance. About a mile
across the country we noticed some
teams blowing, and lady, Mrs. Har-
vey, informed US that they belonged
to her father, Mr.. Crit Yates. This
announcement brought smiles to our
woe be-gone faces, for we knew that
Mr.. Yates would come to our rescue.
A boy was dispatched who told Of our
trouble and in a short Tins a mule
team and stretchers arrived, and our
machine was hauled up the hill. One
mile across ]. A Dulworth's farm
landed US on the pike and in about
one hour we we're seated around the
festival board at the Green River Ho
tel, Greensburg, where we enjoyed ;
most delicious dinner.
After dinner We strolled over tn,
city, meeting a number of friends
the Lewis boys, Wood and Jim, Lap

and others. 1t had been thirty year
since Mr.. Russell had seen Greens
burg and it looked like dew town t,
him.
From Greensburg we went to Camp

A few minutes later we were in Camp
