In referring to the death of Rev. V.
O. Penley, of De Soto, at the most
terrible wreck at Sulphur Springs, the
De Soto Press says: ''In the search
the body of our estimable minister
Rev. V. D. Penley was found, lying at
the north west abutment of the
bridge. He was easily recognized as
his face was not severely MANNED
Loving hands picked up the body and
bore it to the depot and placed it ir
as good place as could be found-ar
empty box. Truly SIN the midst OF
life, we are in death". The body was
placed in the Episcopal church here
whereit lay in state until the funera
last Tuesday. There was great solici
tude for the Penley family in their
hour of deep distress aad many peo
pie gathered to view the silent re-
mains of their dearly beloved pastor
and friend. He was grand man ane
: prepared to go, but everyone regret
ted his sudden taking away"
