NEWS from the COUNTY

Miss Cora Deardurff left Monday to enter Chicago university where she will finish her educational work. Fred Lyons and Luther' Lyons sold 40 acres from the B. B. Miller farm to Louis Schriver for $275 per acre. James Little has sold his home in East Brook to Jesse Bringle and purchased the Aaron Lyons home on north Jefferson street. Possession will be given in March. A number of the friends of Mr. and Mrs. Willis Gridley gave them a surprise Tuesday evening. The event was in the nature of a farewell, as Mr. and Mrs. Gridley will leave nqxt week for their new home in Chicago. » Captain and Mrs. Pruett came home from California last Saturday. They had an enjoyable trip and found a country much to their liking around Los Angeles. They are talking strongly of moving out there the coming year. A number of the children and grandchildren gathered at the home of Uncle John Foreamnn Sunday to help him celebrate his 87 th birthday. Few men of Mr. ForeSman’s years enjoy better health and very few enjoy life more. He has newer lost interest in any of his business affairs and can show the young men yet how to buy cattle and run the farm. He expects to live to the century mark and keep busy (all the time. His brother William from Yakima, Wash., 89 years of age, was a guest at the dinner party. Jay Me. Parks arrived home from Texas the last of the week. He had been in the army over 17 months and practically all of that time had been spent in Texas and along the Rio Grande. He was with the 37th infantry regiment and has listened to the whistle of Mexican bullets across the border. Most of their patrol duty was in the Big Bend country where it is wild and sparcely settled. He says they captured many “slackers’’ there who came across the river for supplies and to visit with relatives, but they captured very few “greasers.” Word came. to relatives the first of the week of the death of Jeptha V. Hess at his home in Nevada, Mo., Sept. 16, of (acute heart affection. It seems that he had traded his farm near Burwell, Neb., and with his son Charles had gone there to take charge, while his wife and other members of the family had stopped to visit relatives at Hastings, Neb. On tl\e 14th he had an attack of heart trouble and recovered, but on the 16th he had another severe attack and died on the night of the 16th, meanwhile his wife had arrived and was with him at his death. A party of friends who at one time were neighbors of Mrs. Sarah Kendall near Foresman, gathered at her home and gave her a surprise on the evening of Saturday, the 27th. It was the occasion of her 82d birthday. Mrs. Kendall belongs to the pioneers of this county,'having settled near Foresman with her husband in March, 1866. Their home was a log cabin on Mosquito creek, and it was on this fanm she spent her life until coming to to Brook about seven years ago. Such has been her life in this community that at a ripe old age she enjoys not only the love and affection of her family but the deepest feeling of respect that one can feel for one of the pioneer mothers whose teachings and life have fixed firmly our cherished ideals of home, social life and country.
