Former Remington Man Dies Suddenly in Texas.

County Treasurer A. A. Fell received a message Wednesday evening from Bay City, Texas, stating that his son, Horace Fell, had died there and the body was being shipped to Remington for burial, leaving Bay City Thursday morning. No particulars were given, but his death must have been very sudden. Mr. Fell was aged 38 years and leaves a wife but no children. He had been living in Texas for the past five sears, near Chalmers, and was engaged in rice farming. He had occasionally served as deputy sheriff there, and it is possible that he may have incurred the enmity of some one or have been killed while making an arrest, as he was in goow health so far as his father knew*. A Bay City paper of date of June "4, mentioned Mr. and Mrs. Fell and others taking an outing trip last week. The deceased after leaving Remington "went to Auburn, Ind., where he was employed for two years by the Auburn automobile works. He then removed to Texas. The body was expected to reach Remington some time Friday or Saturday morning. LATER —Mr. Fell, Sr., telegraphed the operator at Bay City for particulars, but did not get much information. The operator said the death was sudden; that Mrs. Fell was almost prostrated, but with her mother had taken tickets to Remington, with the body, and would probably reach Remington Saturday night. Mr. Fell was expecting to hear from his son’s wife when they reached St. Louis. The funeral will probably be held Sunday afternoon at 2:30, at the M. E. church in Remington.
