The burial of little Oakel Gant, who died Monday night, was, at the last moment, decided to be made here in Weston cemetery, instead of at Demotte as first intended. The little girl’s father is burled at Demotte and It was intended to bury her by his side, but the family had, no regular lot there and the space next her father’s grave had been used to bury someone else, hence the decision to, bury here. The remains of Mr. Gant will likely be removed from Demotte to Weston cemetery later. The funeral of the little girl was held Wednesday afternoon from the F. W. Baptist church, Rev., O. E. Miller conducting the service. Anson Cox, the carpenter, who was injured by being thrown fjrom a horse at the S. P. Thompson farm near Parr Sunday afternoon, is improving very slowly and is irrational part of the time. The accident occurred while Anson was helping a boy drive some steers from ! the yard. The steers had become irrated ard Anson got onto the horse the boy had been riding to see what he could do. One of the steers charged his horse and the frightened animal threw Anson about four feet off the saddle and he catae down on the ground with great force, striking on his head. He was unconscious for several hours and since being brought home has improved but slowly. His doctor thinks he will finally come out all right, however. It was a close call, surely.
