=== Virgil Allen's Death ===
Virgil Allen was almost instantly killed Wednesday morning when the south side of a pit he was digging on the Frank Albin farm near Honey Creek, caved in and crushed him against some timber.  He was still breathing when taken out by the other men working there, but died before they could get him to the Sabetha hospital, to which he was rushed as soon as rescued from the pit.
The pit in which he was working was about 12 feet square and was to be 12 feet deep, to house some of the machinery used in drilling the test well on the Albin farm.  It is said that Virgil had been warned that the sides should be shored, but that he considered it safe.  The other men were working nearby, but none of them in a dangerous position.  The falling dirt crushed him against the timber with terrific force, and he was never conscious after being taken out.
Besides his widow and two small children, Mr. Allen is survived by his parents and five brothers and two sisters.
Funeral services will be held at Bethany U.B. church at Honey Creek, Friday afternoon at 2:30, with burial in heim cemetery, at Dawson.

Church, of which he was a member at the time of his untimely death.
Virgil's kindly and sunny disposition endeared him to all his acquaintances.  So marked was his geniality that he was called "Happy" by his friends.  His tragic passing has spread a gloom over the entire neighborhood.
The funeral service was held at the Bethany church Friday afternoon and burial was in the Heim cemetery at Dawson.  A large crowd attended, bespeaking the high esteem in which he was held by his friends and neighbors.
