VETERAN OF CIVIL WAG
is DEAD AT AUSTIN

With genuine sorrow the news of
the death of Jacob Keiser of Austin
was received Wednesday For %
years this fine old man has made his
home in Delta county. endearing him
self to many. both old and young.
He has been in failing health for
several years. due to advanced years.
and death came only as the inevitable
turning point in every human life,
Jacob Keiser was born at Shippens-
vile, PENNSYLVANIA. November 8, 1889.
and passed from earthly life October
5. 1921. requiring but one month to
have attained 50 years.
In 1865 he was married to Mary
Jane Baker. and to the union four
children were born. one passing away
in youth. while one daughter and two
sons. Mrs. P. NJ. Kistler of Colorado
Springs and Charles F. and Rufus F.
of Wenatchee. Washington. survive.
The mother passed away a number
of years ago.
Mr.. Keiser was married to his pres
ent wife few years later, at Clinton,
Missouri, and she. with the three chill
dren, is left to mourn.
Mr.. Keiser was familiarly known to
his friends as Cap Keiser. He served
throughout the Civil War with Co. F.
s5th Illinois Volunteers. and was dis
charged with lieutenants commits
SION but was acting captain for sew
eral months before the close of the
war.

SEVERAL AUTO PARTIES
GO OVER NUCLA-DElTA
ROAD THIS WEEK

|. Several parties came over the Nucla-
Delta road this week to Delta. The
road is in fair shape considering the
work done on it. so autoists and others
say. Tom Ford was one of the par
ties making the trip.
Two oil statesmen in a Ford roadster
left Nucla early Monday morning. ac-
cording to C. W. Neal and F. B.
Logan, who came over on that day.
Mr. Neal felt quite sure the Ford
would have to be dragged out of some
of the places. but he says they never
caught a glimpse of the party on the
trip Mr.. Neal and Mr.. Logan both
had business at Montrose and came
over the new road. "a miles in five
hours and half. to Delta. They
made the trip to Montrose and re-
turned to Delta all the same day.
miles.
The Nucla-Delta road is n state
highway. but owing to antagonism
the road receives no appropriation.
With such a short cut for the people
of western Montrose county to reach
their county seat. even if they must
come within a couple of miles of
Delta. some way should be figured
out to eliminate a few political heads
and place this practical road in the
very best of shape. 1t is known to-
be the only road in that section
traversing water course. All other
roads. it is stated by engineers, are
compelled to be built across water
courses of varying sizes and through
a dangerous territory noted for wash
outs. cloudbursts. etc, and in the
spring of the year rockslides are al
ways to be feared.
1t is hoped the people of western
Montrose county will eventually be
successful in securing the ear of the
right man on the highway commission
to give them relief.

FINE OLD GENTLEMAN
PASSES TO REWARD

Friends of William Kennedy We're
surprised early Wednesday morning
to learn of his death at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. Sam Park, on Cali
fornia Mesa, just after ~ o'clock mid
night.
Mr.. Kennedy had been ill for about
ten days with bronchial pneumonia,
and while attending physicians SEEM
ed to have curbed the disease, his
heart action failed, due to advanced
age.
Never a sweeter old soul crossed
the River of Death than this vener-
able gentleman, who though afflicted
for the past four years by total blind
ness. still retained that wonderful
smile and that beautiful spirit which
had characterized his whole life. He
was a Christian gentleman and a
member of the Church of Christ for
several years.
Mr.. Kennedy was born at Terre
Haute, Indiana, on May Is. 1912. In
early manhood he moved to Burling-
ton, Kansas, where he was married
and lived for number of years. At
the beginning of the Civil War he
enlisted with Co. F, Twelfth Kansas
Volunteer Infantry, serving through
out the war. His wife passed away
20 years ago and he later went to the
Soldiers Home at Sawtelle, Califor-
mia, where he remained until two
years ago. when he came to Delta.
There are three daughters and one
son surviving, as follows: Mrs. May
Briefly of London. England; Mrs. Sam
Park and Will Kennedy of Delta, and
Mrs. Anna Miller of Denver.
Funeral services were held at the
Delta Mortuary yesterday afternoon,
Elder Hubbard of the Latter Day
Saints having charge. and interment
in Garnet Mesa cemetery followed.

cEDAREDGE HAS HOUSE
WARMING AT NEW BUILDING

Cedaredge has just cause to feel
proud of her new high school build
ing which, except for size, rivals any
such edifice on the Western Slope.
The building is of white pressed
brick, with hardwood floors, large
windows, sanitary fountains and
sewer connections short, equal to
any high school building to be found
anywhere. 1t has lovely auditorium
with seating capacity of 500, for
which seats We're ordered Tuesday.
This room has good sized stage
with convenient approaches.
The writer had the privilege of Wis
iting this building Wednesday even
ing. and when we say privilege" we
mean all that the word implies. The
janitor, Mort Beckley, spared no pains
to show us about, patient unlocking
and relocking each room and leaving
nothing unexplored.
The City will soon have the lighting
system extended, when the building
will have received the last touch of
convenience.
Cedaredge has splendid teaching
force and public-spirited school
board which almost any district might
envy.
The most recent addition to the
school curriculum is a commercial de.
partment with 19 students. Miss Ver.
onica Pring of Delta is in charge OF

Among other Delta teachers we

were heard on every hand. Miss Mel
