On Thursday morning Novem
ber the 23rd, while cutting timber
for a saw mill located on his fathers
olace, William Lusk was instantly
killed. He was about twenty-c : ght

of cheer and a smile for all he came
in contact with. He was al vays

and give a word of sympathy to
those i n sarrow. His death will be
mourned by his many friends and
relatives. Surviving are his father,
ive sisters and two brother- His
remains were laid to rest by th ■ side
of his wife in Shoal Creek cemetery,
who proceded his about four years
to await the resurrection.
Mty his rest In peace and may the
floware blossom around hi3 grave
the year round, for we bel'eve he
deserves it. Claud Hardin.
