Death of Otto Fenton
Last Saturday evening occurred the death of Ottie Fenton, following an attack of measles. Mr. Fenton had been in poor health and from the time he was taken with them he had a little hopes of recovery, fearing that even if he should recover it would advance into tuberculosis. He made his will and arranged his business in case should not recover.

He owns property in Plano, a farm north of Plano and was a stockholder in the Plano Improvement Company. He expected to occupy a portion of the new brick building, which this company was building, as a hardware store.

Deceased leaves a wife, two daughters, aged 11 and seven; two brothers, three sisters and a host of friends to mourn his loss.
He was a member of the Chariton River Baptist church and his pastor, Reverend Dawkins, conducted the funeral service is Monday afternoon at the church. Interment was made at Brushy cemetery.
