The Kellison Divorce Case. We have refrained from giving any of the evidence or any particulars of the suit of Flora Kellison versus Charles Kellison which attracted a large crowd Friday and Saturday. It is a pity that so much that was unnecessary was told in court. People from all parts of the county go home saying that if all the testimony is true nobody could live with either of them, when the facts are that both are probably about as good as the average citizen. The case was tried by Judge Adair of Columbia City. Martindale and Stevens represented the plaintiff and Hon. C. P. Drummond was Mr. Kellison's attorney. At the conclusion of the arguments of attorneys Saturday evening, Judge Adair decided that Mr. Kellison was entitled to a divorce on his crossbill and allowed Mrs. Kellison $200 to pay costs and attorney fees.

Undertaker Leonard took charge of the remains and they were taken to the home of his mother near Twin Lakes, Sunday morning where the funeral was held at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon conducted by Rev. E. H. Zilmer of the Church of God. The remains were in an excellent state of preservation and the funeral was largely attended.

NATHAN H. OGLESBEE
One of Plymouth's Oldest, Most Prominent and Respected Citizens Died Sunday Night After a long and at times very painful illness, Nathan H. Oglesbee, died at his home in this city at 11:40 p.m., Sunday Nov. 10, aged 75 years and four months. Deceased had been for almost half a century one of Marshall county's most prominent citizens, and his death will fill with sadness the hearts of hosts of friends in every section of the county. He was the son of Jacob and Edith (Woolman) Oglesbee, who were natives, respectively of Virginia and New Jersey and their parents were among the early settlers of Ohio. Maternally Mr. Oglesbee was a descendant of John Woolman, the eminent Quaker of England, who is a conspicuous figure in the early history of the Friends' church. Nathan H. Oglesbee was born in Greene county, Ohio, July 10, 1826. He was reared on a farm, received a good common school education, learned the carpenter trade, and came to Laporte county, Ind., in 1854, where he followed his trade until 1856 when he removed to Plymouth and engaged in the merchantile business. He sold goods here with success for about four years although during that time his store was twice almost completely destroyed by fire. He always took an active interest in political affairs and in 1858 was elected treasurer on the republican ticket over a large democratic majority, was re-elected in 1860 and his official record is one of the best in the history of Marshall county. He went into the army in 1863, was appointed captain commissary of subsistence and established supply depots throughout the south. At the close of the war he returned to Marshall county and engaged in the lumber business in which he was very successful. He was also a member and director of the Indiana Lumber company with headquarters at Nashville, Tennessee, and later operated a large mill at Simpson, Ill. Failing health compelled his retirement from active business about eight years ago, and he resided for several years on his farm south of town, returning to this city about a year ago He was twice married, his first wife was Mary A. Walm who died in Ohio in 1853. His second marriage was solemnized with Lydia Doolittle of Plymouth, in 1857, whose death occurred in 1877. She was the mother of three children; Rollo B. the present editor of the Plymouth Tribune, Walter, who died a few years ago, and Jeanne, who has remained at home and cared for her father during his long illness. Funeral services were held at late residence of deceased, on South Michigan street at 2 o'clock p. m., Tuesday, conducted by Rev. Geo. A. Little, of Cicero, and Rev. O. S. Thornberry, of this city and the remains were interred in the family lot at Oak Hill cemetery. In the death of N. H. Oglesbee the county loses one of its oldest, best and most enterprising citizens. He was an honest man, a man of positive opinions true as steel to his friends, but always ready to deal justly with foes as well as friends. Landis Sees Roosevelt. Congressman Charles B. Landis of Indiana, an active opponent of civil service, called on President Roosevelt Saturday morning. The congressman went to the white house with fear and trembling, for he had bitterly attacked the president both as a civil service commissioner and as assistant secretary of the navy on account of his strenuous ideas on the subject. When he introduced himself to Mr. Roosevelt the president said: "Oh, yes, you are the congressman who has criticised my attitude on civil service so severely. Well, I am glad to meet you. I admire you for it, because it shows that you are a man of ideas. You are the sort of a man I like to have come around." Mr. Landis was surprised by the reception. Charges Against Probert. It is reported that Governor Bliss, of Michigan, will announce his decision this week in regard to the requisition for Dr. Probert at Niles, who is charged with wrecking a bank at Bourbon. It is said that five other charges will be made against Probert if the requision is not honored.
