with to Hugh Lay of Damascus. He went
into a well on Mr. Thebo's place to dig
it out. He lit a match, but it immedi
ately went out, but still he went to
work. He had only got one and a half
buckets of dirt when he called for a
ladder, which was put down in the
well; he grasped the ladder but lost
consciousness and they called for Mr.
Bowerman who lives near. He came
and went down, putting a rope around
Hugh. The women had to help pull
him out; they thought at first he was
dead, but after an hour or so he came
to, but was unable to leave his bed
the rest of the day. It was a close
call. The same afternoon Mr. Thebo's
house got on fire and again Mr. Bow
erman put it out.

He remarked that he was feeling so

heard him fall and running to the side
of the boat saw his cap on the water

the boat was anchored near another

morning the body was recovered, his
family notified and Mr. Sinclair went
after it. returning Saturday night with
the rdknains. John was aged 21 years

end has cast a gloom over the home
where a father, mother, two sisters
and six brothers are left to mourn.
This family have just realized the
dark coming of death for the first
time in their home. Services were
held at the home Sunday afternoon at
4 o'clock, by Rev. Blackwell of the M.

were laid to rest in Mountain View
cemetery. Mr. and Mrs. Sinclair and
family extend sincere thanks to the
kind friends and neighbors who came
and did so much for them, and also
for the beautiful flowers. May their
sorrow be smothered by the same pow

and sustanns the sorrowing.
