Immediately after the ceremony a wedding luncheon was served, while the Lebo Brass Band paid their respects to the newly wedded pair. The bride is the one daughter of Mrs. Allie Collins, of Raton. New Mexico, and the grand daughter of R. L.

Morris, and has had charge of the Cottage House since it was opened to the public. She is a young lady of many accomplishments and most estimable qualities. The groom is one of Lebo's most substantial and worthy citizens, has long been our popular tonsorial artist and has recently engaged with F. E. Burns in the furniture and undertaking business.

The people of Lebo and vicinity were pained to learn of the death of Rev. Alexander Hambleton Britton which occured at his home eight and o11e half miles south east of here at 11:20 Monday morning. Mr. Britton was born in Hillsboro, Highland county, Ohio and when twenty-four years of age was married to Miss Henrietta Ayers of the same county. To this union were born five children Lucille Morse, Robert Homer, Sherman G.

Edith and Horace W. all present at his bed side when he breathed his last. At his country's call for volunteers he enlisted the 11 Indiana Cavalry and was made a bugler and while sounding the charge at the second day's battle of Nashville was shot in the head. the bullet lodging where it could not be recovered. About a month ago he was stricken with paralysis and lingered between life and death until called home.

In 1866 he moved to Kansas locating in Chase county from there moving to Lyon county settling 011 a farm five miles northwest of Hartford and two years later moved to his pleasant home where he spent his remaining days. Soon after the war he entered the ministry as an elder in the Christian church and was a constant and faithful worker until the day of his death. Rev. Park C. Herbert of Burlington preached all earnest and touching sermon from al text found in Joshua I3-17.

The Masons, of which order he had been for many years a member, conducted the services and acted- as an escort from the home to Key West cemetery where interment was made. The death of a loved one fills the measure of grief to overflowing in that family circle, and to them is extended the deepest sympathy of a host of sorrowing friends. It is our sad duty to announce the sudden and unexpected death of our fellow townsman Mr. J. M.

Burns, which occurred at his residence in this city Thursday, July 31, 1899, at about 11 a. 111. The funeral will be held at the M. E. Church Sunday at 2 m.

conducted by Rev. Case, under the auspices of the I. O. O. of which order he was an old and worthy member.
