THREE MILES FROM HOME
-----------Edwin Blythe, retired farmer of Kellogg, was killed Monday evening when it is believed his axe with which he was chopping wood caught in a branch and struck the back of his head. He was missed from his home at about 6 o'clock yesterday evening and a searching party composed of Leslie Hill, his son-in-law; Hugh Reichelt and Sherman Reichelt, found the body three miles from the home. No inquest will be held as the death was evidently accidental.
Mr. Blythe was 72 years old and is survived by his wife and two daughters, Mrs. Leslie Hill, of Kellogg; Mrs. Olen Parmley of west of Grinnell; and numerous friends and acquaintances in Grinnell. Funeral arrangements have not been completed.
