A Good Citizen Dead.
It it with much regret that we
chronicle the death of Seth R.
Harper at his home eight miles
south of Spring Place last Thurs¬
day afternoon about 1 o’clock.
For several months Mr. Harper
had been a sufferer from a can¬
cerous growth around his ear,and
his death, which was a shock to
his many Murray county friends,
was not a surprise.
His remains were laid to rest
in Mt. Zion cemetery last Friday
by the Spring Place lodge of Odd
Fellows, of which order he was a
member.
The News, with other friends,
extends to the bereaved ones its
heartfelt sympathy.

When you have a cough or cold
do not ask some one what is good
for it, as there is danger in tak¬
ing some unknown preparation.
