A Sad Accident.

On Saturday morning, January 1,
1921, Edgar Cox was accidentally shot
by Bazel Towery of Lilbourn, Mo,
and death came Saturday eve. He
was fifteen years of age only, in the
bloom of life. His many friends and
loved ones regrets to hear of this sad
accident. He leaves a father, mother,
four brothers and two sisters, and a
host of relatives and friends to mourn
his departure. He had many, many
friends, and loved by all who knew
him. Death was so sudden, it seems
most near impossible that this dear
one has passed away. We, too, must
face death some day. So let's be pre-
pared to meet a never dying Saviour.
We pray we may meet Edgar in
Heaven some day. His father is very
low at this writing. The entire COM
munity ~sympathizes with them.
Do you know that Jesus promised,
When he left this world of sin,
That he would come again to gather
! All his bright jewels in?
Be We ready for the summons
When YOU hear the midnight cry,
For our Saviour will be coming
On the clouds up in the sky.

@. E. Merseal, a prominent timber
man, died at his home in De Soto last
month. Mr.. Merseal was q frequent
business visitor to this county, The
following is reproduced from the De
Soto Press: sc. E. Merseal, n oil
De Soto's old and most highly re-
spected citizens, passed away at his
late home in the north part Of town
Thursday afternoon December 80,
1920. Mr.. Merseal a few days ago
suffered a light attack of ptomaine
poisoning which later developed into
a serious attack of heart trouble, and
from which he was unable to rally.
Mr.. Merceal was formerly in business
at Frumet, conducting the general
merchandise store at that place for a
number of years. Prior to that time
he lived on and operated a large farm
on Big River near Frumet. About 16
years ago he disposed of his interests
in the mercantile BUSINESS and moved
to De Soto; some three years later he,
with j. M. Alice, formed the present
firm Of the Merseal-A Alice Tie and
Timber Co., of which he was at the
time of dea5h still an active member"
The remains of the late J. @. Stevens
were brought from st. Louis and
inferred in the Masonic Cemetery
last Wednesday afternoon. A large
concourse attended the final rites.
We mentioned last week that he had
died suddenly and alone in the apart
ment house he and his family had
occupied. The other members of the
family were on a visit to friends in
Des Arc. His brother, W. H. Stevens,
also a resident of St. Louis, was the
frst,to discover his death. They liv-
ed within'two or three blocks of each
other and met nearly every day.
When three days had passed without
a call from his brother, Mr.. w. Fl.
Stevens went to the apartment oc-
cupied by his brother, and knocked
at the door. Receiving no response,
he, looking through the transom.
saw his brother lying on the floor
Entrance into the room followed and
the body gave evidence that death
had come many hours before. An
inquest developed the fact that
apoplexy had stricken him. The
whole community joins with us in
rendering sympathy to the relatives
in their hours of sorrow.

Lead Boost at Annapolis.
tFredericktown standard.)

-n- .
Yesterdays Globe Democrat says
the striking of lead in commercial
quantities in a hitherto undeveloped
portion Of Missouri's lead belt was
announced by Douglas G. Cook, presi-
dent of the Annapolis Lead 90.
The strike was made in the vicinity
of Annapolis, in Iron County, at a
depth Of 800 feet. Cook said that the
shaft would be carried another 100
feet, and galleries would be extended
to several levels of the deposit. Free
ore will be taken from the mine as
soon as next month.
This formation, according to Cook,
is part Of the Flat River deposit. An
napolis is about thirty five miles
southeast OF Flat River, and on the
main line of the Iron Mountain and
Southern Railroad. Cook states that
the finding OF lead on the properties
of his company is the first important
new lead district to be discovered
within the last forty years.
