Flamilton, of near Subligna, was ' killed last Friday morning while hauling lumber from a sawmill. About all that can be learned of the unfortunate affair is that he had gone to the mill, leaded his wagon with lumber and started ( home. About four or five hours later, he was found by a negro man. His skull was badly frac tured, and he was unconscious and : therefore give no account of how the accident happened. It is thought that the team ran away with him down a steep hill, at,the ( foot of which he was found. One ;of his legs was broken and he was otherwise severely injured. He ( was carried home by the colored j man, but lived only a short time i afterwards. OUR “GLORY” CORNER. A List of Those Who Remember The Golden Rule.
