SIDNEY A. HANNA.

While the nation has been grieving
with President and Mrs. Coolidge,
this little village and surrounding
towns have been stricken with grief
over the accidental death last Thurs
day afternoon of Sidney, youngest
child of Dallas and Viola Mcfarland
Hanna. The little lad was as happy
and carefree. as the birds and flow
ers among which he played that
afternoon, with his brother Austin,
on their way to the gravel pit on the
Long Pond road, where teams were
loading for the State road work.
In the late afternoon, unknown
to the driver, he climbed upon load
of gravel Before reaching the
drivers seat, he lost his balance
and fell to the ground, enough of
the weight passing over his heart to
cause death in a very few moments.
Sidney was nine years old on June
26 Such a little way he had tray-
eled on a sunlit trail, and one Won
ders, looking back, if he had not
been seeing the end of the road, be-
fore it ever became rough or hard
to travel his eyes were so full of
sparkling happiness.
The funeral was at the home Sat-
urday afternoon. AS Mr.. Knowles
was out of town, Mrs. Peaslee came
bringing comfort; as she had lost a
little son, it was understanding SYM
pathy she had to give. All business
was suspended during the funeral.
The young men cousins acted as
bearers. Relatives and friends, by
their presence in large numbers,
and the masses of beautiful flowers,
gave all that human hearts could
give, to lessen the grief in this strick-
en- home where father and mother,
brother and sister, Austin and Alta,
and grandmother, Mrs. Clara Hanna,
must again take up their daily duties
knowing 1T is we'll with the child"
