KILLS HIMSELF BUT
REMEMBERS FRIENDS

Unsuccessful in affairs of the heart,
Matt Eskel, a resident of Covington
for fifteen years, committed suicide
early Sunday morning by shooting
himself through the heart with a
1882 calibre rife.
Mr.. Eslel was fifty-seven years
of age and was considered fairly well
to do. He was a bachelor and had
no known relatives. The only rea-
son that can be given for his suicide
is his unsuccessful attempts to Sc
cure wife. Writing long letter in
which he stated that he wanted to
give the people chance to drink his
blood, he sat himself down on top of
the main spring in Covington, and
pulled the trigger, using file to
reach the mechanism. Death was in
stantaneous.
Sheriff Kotila and Coroner Faquette
visited Covington shortly after the
death and made the, necessary inves-
LEGATIONS.
Eskel left a long note at the place
where he ended his life and also left
other notes which constituted his will.
He was the owner of a very nice for
ty-acre farm in the distrist and this
will probably revert to the state. In
one note he left 1919 in cash and a
500 Liberty bond to Matt Kemp
painen, in another note he turned over
his cattle, chickens. etc, to John
Hautanen, and in still another he can
celled mortgage for $500 due him
by Mrs. Hammari. and note for
$500 signed by John Ellis.

FLAG DAY JUNE IL

In designating June Ia as Flag
Day, Governor Groesbeck says:
Flag Day, why? In order that by
the setting apart of such day we
may be reminded of the Significance
of the flag of our country. In all civ
ilized lands the flag is held sacred
emblem. To show respect for the
flag is to show respect for the things
for which the flag stands. We honor
the flag then not for what it is ply
ssically in design or texture or color
ing, but for its spiritual significance,
for what it represents. In pledging
allegiance to the flag We pledge al
legiance to those great principles Of
Liberty, Justice and Equality which
are at once the foundation and bull
wark of the Republic.
Therefore, by virtue of the auth
ority vested in me as Governor of the
State of Michigan, / hereby proclaim
Wednesday, June IA. 1922, Flag Day.
Let flags be displayed on both pub
lie and private buildings and let com
munity exercises appropriate to the
day be held wherever practicable"
