ELDER JACK BUTTON
rs VICTIM OF
HEART ATTACK


'Know We not that there is
prince and a great man fallen
this day in Israeli"
x**
Elder Jack Dutton, about rs,
who resided near Nickels Gap,
died almost suddenly Monday
morning. A carpenter by trade,
he was on his way to work on a
dwelling near Skeetrock, when he
suddenly slumped over and died
within few minutes, without ut
tering word or regaining con-
sciorsness.
The next thing his neighbors
could do was to have the body
prepared for burial and prepare
his final resting place not far
from where he lived. The last
rites were on wednesday. A great
crowd attended the funeral and
burial. Elders Charlie Sluss, Har-
rison Mullins, Wexford Powers
and minister from Grundy paid
tribute to the good old man.
Elder Dutton was born and
reared near Blowing Rock and
was a son of the late George and
Tripana Reed Dutton. He was
reared on a mountain farm but
learned the carpenter and black
smith trade early in life and fol-
lowed both during his mature
life. He sometimes mentioned
having helped build or rebuild
houses in Clintwood more than
so years ago.
He became a member of the
Church of the Brethren maybe
so years ago and had been
minister nearly that long. His
neighhbors and friends, no mat
ter what their religious beliefs,
often called upon him to visit all
ing people and preach funerals,
and he never failed them. No
man in the mountains was more
respected than this pious, modest
man. During his latter years he
was called ''Uncle jack" not
only because of his age but also
because he was deeply respected.
He is survived by the widow,
Mrs. Alora Dutton, and by q
number Of sons and daughters
and by two sisters.

Town Votes 100000
For Water System

Talk has been heard that some
politicians, with an eye on the
county election in 1851, wanted
to see how fast women could run
Anyway, the vote went this way:
For Mayor
Minnie C. Miller ........ 259
Anderson Collins ..... "a
For Council
Beuna H. Smith .... 267
Kate Friend ... ...... 231
Marion c. Short ...... 265
Ferne w. Skeen ..... $40

Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1948-06-10


the citizens of Clintwood voted
in favor of a 100000 bond issue
to set up a water system by the
tune of 281 to IS.
According to John Gillian,
present councilman, firm will
sell the bonds and turn the net
proceeds over y to the town. A
three-man water commission,
with staggered terms of office,
will set up and operate the water
system. The money derived from
the sale of water will be set aside
to pay off the bonds. If the wat
er commission does not operate
soundly, the bondholders may.
take over the water plant and
operate it themselves.
Many questions that may arise
in the minds of inquirers cannot
be now answered as details will
have to be worked out gradually.
At any rate, Councilman Gillian
states, the town will have some
kind of water system in opera
ton by year from this time

Enamel Peels OF Window Frame.
Question: Our window frames are
made of soft pine and are finished
In enamel. Condensation causes
water to run down the panes and
soften the enamel, which peels of
in flakes. It is only the lower
part of the frame that peels; the
other parts are in good condition.
How can the frame be water
proofed?
Answer: Your windows may need
to be re-puttied. Before next win
ter. you should plan to have storm
sash put on the windows to pre-
vent the condensation. In the
scrape of the falling
paint. wipe the wood with turpen-
tine and refinish with two coats
enamel undercoater and coat Of
enamel. Get the best quality paint.
