His entire life was spent at home in this community, where he made a large ciicle of friends. His brother, James Thomts Ellis, died four years ago last l'%ury of the flu, and his mothex pass away two years ago the 31st ofi last December. Mrs. Isabel Sharkey, of Grayslake, Monday was granted a divtrce from James Sharkey. She alleged that Sharkey freuentlv became intoxicat-- ed and abusive, and that upon a re-- cent occasion he threw her out of the house.. She declared his conduct became such that she feared for her life and was compelled to leave home. CRASH RESULTS IN _ _ $§15,000 LAWSUIT Calvin suffered a severe sunstroke iour yeurs ago, and since that time has never been able to, stand the se-- vere bhot wetther. His sudden death bhas shocked the entire community, and is a great bereavement to his fam-- ily and many friends. There remain to mourm hbhis loss his father, Robert A. Cllis, of Libertyville; two brothers, Edward, of Libertyville, at present in th= Victory Memorial hospital in Wau-- kegurn, where he recently underw'&xt an operation for appendhgml. e other Fother is Albert, of Chicago. He tise leaves four sisters, all married Nothing in this world is perfect. The most beautiful landscape has some blemish, and even the Sun, the King of the Day, has spots. No life is with-- out it sfaults. "All have sinned," de clares the word of God. All equally need the Stvior.. In committing Cal vin's body to the ground today, let us chersh only the memory of his virtues and also commit his spirit and our-- selves unto Him, "who is able to save unto the uttermost." Cglvin has been described to me as a very popular young man. The fam-- ily called him by the pet name "Lover" because of his loving disposition. He was fond of fun and good natured and big nearted, tnd easily made many friends. "He that would have friends" says the sage of Holy Writ, "must show himself friendly." Calvin was of that fine stuff of which friends are made. He was always good to his mother. _A neighbor who had 'done business with him, told me that he was strictly honest in his dealings. He loved dumb animals, particultrly horses, and was kind to them. ----Mrs. A. Ellis and Mrs. C. Ellis, of Shelton, Neb.; Mrs. H. De Pape and Mrs. K. Hansen, of Chicago. ISABEL SHARKEY .
