A badger broke in Mrs.

Fanny Hyatt's chicken house Thursday night and was making things live ly among the members of the poultry family. Mrs. Hyatt heard the noise and went to see what was the matter.

As he told the writer some week's before his death, he had worked hard on the home farm to clear it of debt, and had seen few idle hours since coining to Harbcr County. Havingpurchas-i'd his farm part on time, he denied himself many pleasures that he might the sooner have a home free from incumbrance, so he worked hard early and late and had gotten things in good shape and had moved to town to enjoy the fruits of his years of toil when he was stricken down with the disease that ended in his death. He was a member of the Christian Church and was buried in Kose Hill Cemetery Sunday, June 10. Rev. Von Schriltz conducted the funeral services.
