This town, and especially the neigh borhood where he lived, was shocked Monday morning by the news that Mr. Fullington had died suddenly Sunday night at his home, about three miles northwest of Gentry. He was in town only last Saturday, in his usual health and good spirits, and so no one was prepared to hear of his decease. It was a great blow to his wife and fam ily, coming as it did with but a few luinuies' warning. His son, Lynne, with his wife, ar rived from Huthinson, Kan., Monday, and the funeral was held at the resi dence Tuesday afternoon, attended by a large concourse of friends and neigh bors. Rev.' L. A. Turner, pastor of the Congregational church, conducted the service. The body was taken on the night train Tuesday, accompanied by Mrs. Fullington and the son, Lynne, to be interred at the old home in Illi nois. A host of friends, here and in other places where they have lived, extend sincere sympathy to the family in this, their hour of great loM and sad bereavement? v , DePorest Henry Fullington was born in North Cambridge, Vt., Oct. 14, 1858. Here he remained thru his boyhood years. He removed to Illinois at the age of twenty-two years, where he shortly married his present wife, Em ma Page, who, with their two children, Lynne Page and Lora May, survives him. After engaging in successful farming for a number of years Mr. Fullington, with his family,- moved to Garden City, Kan., where he resideda five years. Coming to Arkansas two years ago, he purchased his present farm northwest of Gentry. Mr. Fullington was a man always found upright and honest in his deal ings with his fellow men and ready to help the needy whenever the occasion1 demanded. He was a man of sound judgment and serious mind, but of a jovial disposition, always entering into the pleasures of the young as well as the older. His death occurred Sunday, Feb. 1, 1914, at 10:30 p. m. He had been so well up to fifteen minutes before he passed away that his going was a terri ble shock, not only to his bereaved family; but to all his friends, who had come to honor and respect him for bis high qualities as a friend and citizen. --Funeral services were held in the McHenry Methodist church Feb. 5, the Rev. T. Atkey Brewster, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church of North Crystal 'Lake, officiating. Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Walsh ministered in Bong.

L Qverton, propreitor ot' the West Side livery, is confined to-his home on Waukegan street, suffering from the effects of a badly scalded face he received last Sunday morning. It peems that Mr. Overton has been in the habit of taking coffee and lunch to the barn from his home for Dick Hal- pip, who is in his employ. JL»ast .Sun day morning Dick wasn't cfuite ready to partake of his lunch when the pro prietor arrived and in order to keep the coffee warm the can was placed on the stove in the office of tne barn. When Dick got ready to partak^ of the food he could not open the air tight stopper on top of the can, so called to Mr. Overton to assist him. At the instant that the stopper was removed the entire contents were blown into the face of Mr. Overton, causing severe burns.* Dr. Wells dressed the injured man and, altho suffering great pain and agony, he is {doing as well as could be expected, con sidering the nature of the burns.
