EVERETT McADOW

Three Year Old Son of James McAdow Killed by Falling Shed

A most distressing fatality occurred at the Jas. McAdow farm in Section 30, Lindoln township, yesterday. Mr. McAdow was engaged in tearing down a cattle shed, of which one side had been left standing for a shelter for the stock.

His little son, aged three, was playing near the high fence when it was blown over by the wind. Mr. McAdow, supposing that the boy was in the house, did not miss him for nearly half an hour, when his lifeless body was found beneath the fence and shed shelter.

Funeral services, conducted by Rev. Shannon of the Macksburg M. E. church, were held today and burial made in the Walker cemetery.
