Order at One of the worst farm accidents " to occur in the McHenry community in several years took the life of Richard Harrison, 4, of Wonder Lake last Saturday, April 19. The youngster died in the Woodstock hospital about 6 p.m. from injuries sustained twenty-four hours previous when he became caught in the blades of a manure spreader. Richard and his sister, 6-yearold Judy Anne, were riding with their uncle, Howard Bruce Harrison, on a manure spreader which the latter was using to haul chicken feed.

Remember the sppeintmeat your pledge cards. The recent horsemeat investigations brought McHenry into the news once more last weekend as Bureau of Internal Revenue agents sought to find the persons who gained from the estimated $2,500,000 obtained from illegal horsemeat operations in this part of the state. It has been reported that the OPS has given agents records of deposits made by racketeers in five Chicago banks and banks in McHenry, Wauconda and several other downstate cities. Bank records and photostatic copies of checks are said to have been turned over by Robert C. Nelson. Lake county state's attorney. Early in the investigation it has been learned that several leaders in the racket did not file income tax returns for several years. Among those topping the list in being investigated was Joseph Siciliano, named by authorities as one of the top men in the racket. Siciliano, Russell Minea, Charles Kocmund and Meyer Ditlove were said to have been affiliated with the Johnsburg Packing company, whose bank deposits were reported at more than $200,000 for a 4-month period. and father, Robert Richardson, son of Mrs. Jennie Mae Richardson of McHenry.

The unit is located only a short distance from Brady field, where he is stationed.

Food Good Food supplies are sent regularly from Tokyo \nd prices are quite reasonable. Mrs. Richardson writes that she is able to purchase small eggs for thirty-nine cents a dozen and milk at nineteen cents a quart. The milk is a powdered product which has been mixed in Tokyo factories and then shipped south. They als<f have frozen meat in ample quantities.

Downs of McHenry were elected to the board of directors. One of McHenry's oldest professional men, both in age and in years of service to his community. Dr. Rollo G. Chamberlin, died early Monday afternoon, April 21, following several months of failing health. However, he had been confined to his home for only the past month. Had Dr. Chamberlin lived until June of this year he would have observed his fiftieth year of service as a dentist. His efficient and kindly manner won friends for many miles around and his clientele numbered patients from a great many neighboring communities. Some years ago the popular dentist remarked to a friend that when his time came to die he could at least say that he had .enjoyed life to the fullest. His family and others closest to him are quick to testify to the truth of that statement. Through the years he retained a great interest in sports events and for almost the fifty years he lived in McHenry followed the successes and defeats of local basketball teams. Even when his health had failed to the point that he could hardly walk into the gymnasium, he insisted on attending one of the Warrior games early in February of this year. His strength ebbed but his spirit and interest in living never waned. In his long lifetime, he acted as father to children of two generations. After his own . family was grown, his one son, Rollo, went into Navy service during World War II and went down with his ship in the Pacific. Dr. Chamberlin and his wife took the young serviceman's boy into their home and even after Mrs. Chambtrlin's death he continued to provide the same care and training he had given his own children. The deceased was a member of the local Masonic lodge, the Knights Templar of Woodstock, Fox River Valley Gamp, R. N. A., and the Methodist church of McHenry. He was born in Gobies, Mich., Jan. 13, 1874, and was married to Fannie Densmore in 1900 in St. Joseph, Mich. Two years later ,they moved to McHenry and on Sept. 8, -1950, renewed marriage vows on the occasion of their golden wedding anniversary. Dr. Chamberlin was graduated from the University of Illinois dental school and opened his first office in the old Evanson building now the site of the West Side locker. Returning from an outing one day, he found the entire structure had been destroyed by fire. He re-opened his dental office in the Althoff building and later moved to the Jos. W. Freund building in West McHenry, where he continued to practice until very recently. Even when poor health prevented him from going daily to his office, he kept his office intact and continued to plan for the day he would resume work. Mrs. Chamberlin died in August of 1951. He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Greeta McCabe and Mrs. Louise Kennebeck, both of McHenry; seven grandchildren; one great-grandchild; two brothers, Edwin and William, of Waukegan.
