MEMOIR. Fred Greggerson, in whose honor we meet today, son of Lawrence and Anna Greggerson, was born in the wUage of Cappelor, near Hamburg, Germany, December 21, 1845, and died at his late home in Preble county, O., February 22, 1916, aged 70 years, 2 months and 1 day. He was about 25 years old when he left the Fatherland and took up his abode in New York City. After a short sojourn there he went to Cincinnati. 0., where he met Miss Theresa Mull, to whom he was married May 6, 1873. She was a comfort and inspiration for his future years. In the early part of 1874 they moved to Indiana and first lived near the Four

Mile Brethren church. About a year later they moved to the place familiarly

known as "Beechymire." Being a skilled mechanic, he soon built up a profitable business, during which time his frugal

bride developed a lucrative mercantile business, and thus by thrift, persistence.

and rigid economy laid the foundation

to the fortune they have since accumu

lated.

They reared a family of eleven chil

dren seven girls ani four boys ten of

whom are married and have established honorable homes amid the scenes of

their childhood, while Florence, the

youngest daughter remained with her

parents, a comfort in their declining

years.

All the children are present today and

their grief is shared by the entire com

munity, whose presence here today mutely bears evidence to the fact that

Fred Greggerson in life was a good

neighbor and dependable friend, and no

eulogy is necessary at this hour to endear his memory to this people among

whom he has lived for more than forty

years and whose daily life of service and

integrity in all his dealing with his fel-

ow men is known to all. In common

with mortals of every age and clime he

may have had his faults. Who has not!

But viewing his life at sunset we find each fault screened by some radiant virtue. He went so suddenly that the grief of his loved ones is inconsolable by hu

deal of "pep" and yelled loudly whil. their little team made unsuccessful ef forts at goal shooting. By quick goa shooting Barnard tallied the second lieh goal for Liberty. By this time, out min rds started in their usual working

order and placed a damper on me & shooting bv the Libertonians. Our first j y fidd trnal 'was made bv Trusler. This

goal was an exceedingly long shot and was thrown in a wonderful manner. One strange thing was N that all of the field goals"thrown by Connersville were from the center of the floor or on the side line. This is good evidence that the Liberty guards were doing their duty make the Connersville players throw at the goal from a distance. Wanley waplaying a very good game and was sticking' like "Tanglefoot" to his man. ho', ing Stevens to two field goals. That is

very good. Wanley, keep up your gooo record! Whitman threw the next field

This iroal was termed "undecided

not because it did not count, but because Whitman hesitated for such a long time whether or not to attempt the

throw. The attemot was successful and

Liberty raised their score to six. Gregg made a long throw, which tallied two more for C. IT. R. At this stage of the game a great amount of excitement prevailed. Reed made a 'personal foul and Stevens tallied by a succeiful ffjj! pitch. Barnard increased Liberty's score ky two field goals. Barnard is better kndwn as "Sap" around Liberty. This is a peculiar name for a good basket ball player. Stevens was unsuccessful in two at

tempts at foul throwing. Lewis was playing a fine game and "mixing in" all the time. He was in a great rtVal of the pass-work. Pass-work between Lewis and Wanley seemed to tease the Liberty players more than any other thing. Whitman threw another goal. Our last field goal of the first half was thrown by Trusler. This shot was like the others mentioned' lie fore. It had a great amount of "English" on it and acted as if it wished to roll out of the ring, but it could not. Whitman ended the scoring of the half by a field goal. The score at the end of the first half was 15 to fi. Connersville being on the smaller end.

FENCES.

To g.-t the maximum service out of a fence, it is absolutely necessary that it should be well built. The corner posts must be placed solidly in the ground in such a maimer that they can not be heaved by frost or drawn loose by the pull of- the fence. The fabric should 1 strung tightly to the end posts, but it ought not to lie tightly stapled to the line posts. It should be fastened to line posts in such a manner that the wires may move in a horizontal direction to take care of the contraction and expansion due to changes in temperature and to distribute the force of a blow along the fence line, so that the strain will not come entirely on any one or two

(posts or any one point of the wire. A j barbed wire should be placed a fhort dijtanee above the top of the woven wire I to prevent cattle and horses from crowdI ing it down when reaching over or rub- ! hing against the fence.

Second Half.

The second half had not opened but three minutes when Reed sustained a sprained wrist. Although the injury was not serious it was verv painful and he was obliged to leave the game. Reed played a good game the first half. Holter was substituted in the forward position and Gregg played at center. Barnard scored two field goals for Liberty. hitman made a personal foul and Gregg was successful in his first foul pitch. In throwing this foul the ball did not touch the ring and was a very good throw. Our team started on another short rampage by two field goals, one thrown by Trusler and Hip
