Gilbert, a woll known farmer living near tho Seven-Mile Post on the Base Line road, was killed by a boar Sunday night, as a result of his having at tempted to stop a fight between two of his hogB.

From the place ln which he was discovered, it is supposed that he had strength enough left to climb Into another pen, but the loss of blood was so great that he was unable to save himself and lay down to die, while the hogs gathered around and consumed his body' When ho did not appear his family were considerably alarmed, but did not think of searching for him around tho farm. At noon yesterday bis brother-in-law, I. M. Kdwards, found the remains of Mr. Gilbert in the pen. 1 He was a man 50 years of ago and leaves a wife and three children. The coroner went to the scene of the trouble this afternoon and is now ar ranging Jo hold an Inquest. Mr. Gil bert had made a specialty ol raising fine hogs, but formerly had difficulty with' the boar supposed to have caus ed his death. At 3 o'clock today no arrangements had been made for the funeral.
