Startling information awaited Glenn Neely on his recent return from- service with the army overseas, to the effect that both parents had died during his absence. No news of either death had reached him, and it was not until he came to this county on his return that he learned of the termination of the parental home which he had left a few months before. The young man entered the army from Morocco, where his parents lived, but upon his release a few days ago came to the home of his brother-in-law and sister, Harmon Hoffman and wife of Jefferson township. It was there that the sad news was broken toi him. —Pulaski County Democrat.
