Leonard Huddle lost his life through a quarrel with a neighbor named Mr. Gunn, Saturday night down at Burlington Junction. It is said a long standing bad friendship existed between the two farmers and meeting in a restaurant Saturday night the old trouble was renewed and they came to blows. Mr. Gunn it is said succeeded in releasing himself from the scuffle on the floor and grasping a stool inflicted wounds on Mr. Huddle which caused his death Monday morning. Mr. Huddle was a son of Noah Huddle living near Braddyville where he has resided many years. He leaves a wife and nine children. It is indeed a sad affair. Mr. Gunn is now in custody of the officers.

BURLINGTON JUNCTION.
L. W. Huddle is killed in restaurant Fight;  Roy Gunn the assailant gives himself up

L. W. Huddle who lived about two miles southwest of Burlington Junction, Mo., was fatally hurt in a fight which took place in a restraurant in Burlington Junction last Sunday afternoon about four o'clock.   The fight is supposed to have started from the disappearance of a whisky jug from Huddle's barn last winter.
It is understood that Huddle went to the restaurant Sunday afternoon and met Gunn. They had not been on good terms since last winter when Gunn was employed on the Huddle farm. A fight was started on this old question of the whisky jug, and at first the spectators thought it was more of a joke than any thing else. Huddle struck Gunn a blow which threw him on the counter. Gunn began to chase him and as they went around a corner Huddle slipped on a banana peel. Huddle struck at him just at this time with a stool which he had picked up and hitting him on the head fractured his skull.
On examining the body later it was found that Huddle had been stabbed in the back with a knife and though this blow was not seen by the eyewitness of the fight it is claimed that Gunn was seen to drop a knife during the trouble.
Huddle regained conciousness in about thirty minutes and was taken home. On arriving home the only thing he seemed to recognize was, where the couch was, as he started to lay down but was taken to his room. . Dr. Killingsworth was called into consultation with Dr. Dean, and an operation was performed, lifting the skull off the brain. The man rallied on Monday but died Tuesday evening about eight o'clock.
Huddle is well known around Clarinda and Shambaugh as he has made Page county his home the most of his life. He was 26 years of age and his parents were Mr. and Mrs. Noah Huddle of Shambaugh. His wife was Miss Maud Miller who lived about four miles east of Shambaugh up until the time of her marriage. Mr. Lee Good who lives near Clarinda was his uncle and Miss Anabele Horning of the Kennelworth Hospital of this city was a cousin. Mr. Huddle owned his farm and was considered a hard worker. He leaves a wife and three children.
Roy Gunn the man who struck the blow was more or less a newcomer in the locality of Burlington Junction, but had worked during the winter for Huddle on his farm. Of late he has been employed at the mineral springs. He disappeared after the tragedy and was not seen until Monday when he gave himself up and asked that he taken away from Burlington Junction, where he was taken in charge by deputy sheriff and is now lodged in the county jail at Maryville, Mo.

Jesse Hughes died Sunday, Dec. 20, at his home in East River township from an attack of heart trouble. He was a brother of Jas. Hughes of this city. The New Market Herald gives the following account: "Jesse Hughes was born in Johnson county, near Indianapolis, Ind., in 1842, being at the time of his death 72 years old. Mr. Hughes moved with his parents to Keokuk county, Iowa, in 1846, having spent nearly his entire life in this state. He was united in marriage to Miss Nancy H. Birch in 1864, and to this union eleven children were born, eight of whom grew to manhood and womanhood. Six children and his wife preceded him to the better world, Mrs. Nancy H. Hughes having departed this life Sept. 25, 1886. Mr. Hughes was among the early settlers in this part of Iowa and saw this country develop from a raw prairie to the finest improved land in the Union. He settled in Page county in 1865, and located on what is known as the old Jerry Teeters farm. He lived there only one year and then, in 1866, moved to his present homestead where he resided until his death. He thought several times of leaving the farm and moving to town, but the old homestead, where he had reared his family and accumulated his wealth, was too dear to him and he could not leave it. He enjoyed a wide acquaintance throughout both Taylor and Page counties and had the friendship of all who knew him. Deceased was taken sick about two months ago, but rallied and was considerably better. Sunday evening about dusk he went to the coal shed to get a bucket of coal and his wife was cleaning snow off the walks near by. He had not been gone five minutes when his wife called to him as she kept constant watch over him, knowing his week condition. He did not answer and she went immediately to the coal shed and found him dead. His heart had failed and death came suddenly. It is atmost too sad to chronicle and no one knows the grief of his wife and children. Funeral services were held at the home Friday, Dec. 25, at 1 o'clock, conducted by Rev. D. I. Hower of the M. E. church. Interment at Memory cemetery."

The sickening news came to this city Friday morning of the terrible death of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Hughes little six year old girl, Pearl, the day before, by being burned to death, at their home in East River township. It seems that Mr. Hughes and wife went out to look at some portion of the farm and told an older daughter to get dinner ready. She asked the little child to fix the fire while she went to the cave for potatoes. The little one put some coal in the stove when the accumulated gas sent out smoke and fire and she was soon enveloped iu flames. She ran to the cave and her sister attempted to rescue her but before it was possible to remove the burning clothes her person was fairly crisped from head to foot, especially about the waist. She died in about an hour. It was a heartrending scene to the father and mother on their return and they have the sympathy of all. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 22, 1900

Again we are reminded of the uncartainty of human life.      Death has entered one of our homes and called to his final rewrad Comrade George Hull. He died at the residence of his daughter,   Mrs. Harry Dow, on north 15th street, January 8, 1914.    He had been an invalid for several years.    The primary cause of affliction  was directly attributed to his service  as a soldier in the army.    He received every care and attention that could   be given by loving hands.   Mr. and Mrs. Dow have certainly been good Samaritans in this home.    Every care and attention that could be given to a Father, and also a Mother, was given cheerfully. They will receive there reward in the sweet bye and bye.    The services were conducted by the  Paster of the M. E. church.      The services were very impressive; the G. A. R. Post then performed their beautiful ritualistic service at the home.    Thirty-five old soldiers were present and again demonstrated their loyalty to the nations fallen heroes.   One less in the ranks here and one more in the rapidly increasing ranks on the other shore.

GEORGE HILL
Last week marked the passing away of one more member of the G. A. R., another veteran of the Civil war, George Hull, who died last Thursday at the home of his daughter, Mrs. H. G. Dow, was buried Saturday at one o'clock in the afternoon. Of the forty-four members of the local Post there were thirty-five present at the funeral, even though the day was cold and cloudy. Mr. Hull had perhaps as much hard army service to his credit as any member of the local Post, and the respect and admiration in which his comrades held him speak as high for him as anything that might be said. The following obituary was read at the funeral, which was held from the home of his daughter, Mrs. H. G. Dow.

George Hill, son of George and Sarah Hull, was born at Abbottstown, Penn., Nov. 30th, 1835, and passed away at his home in Clarinda, Iowa, Jan. 8th, 1914, at the age of 78 years, 1 month and 8 days.
He grew to manhood in Adams county, Penn., and was married to Nancy Caroline. Lawver Aug. 4th, 1859. To this union were born seven children. Three little girls, Elizabeth, Asenath and Lida, have gone on before. Mrs. John Robinson of Centralia, Wash., Mrs. T. L. Douthit of Braddyville, la., Elmer M. Hull of Fairfax, Mo., and Mrs.H. G. Dow of Clarinda, la., with his wife, a brother and three sisters are left to mourn his loss.

In October 1862, he enlisted for service in the Civil war, and was discharged in July, 1863, at Gettysburg, Penn. He reinlisted in September, 1863, for the remainder of the war, and was discharged at Alexandria, Virginia, by order of the war department in May, 1865. He was with the army of the Potomac, and most of his service was around Petersburg and Richmond, Va. He took part in the bloody battle of Antietam and was with Grant when Lee surrendered at Appomattox. After the war he moved with his family from Pennsylvania to Illinois. After residing there four years he came to Iowa, and lived in this state 30 years. Two years ago on account of failing health Mr. and Mrs. Hull moved, with Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Dow, to Clarinda, where they resided until his death.
In July, 1906, Mr. Hull was stricken with apoplexy and has been an invalid from that time.
He was baptized in infancy in the Lutheran church, and was a member of this church until he joined the Methodist Episcopal church at Braddyville about 23 years ago. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Jan 15, 1914

Hull, John - .Mr. John Hull died suddenly Monday evening at his home in northwest Clarinda, between six and eight o'clock.
A sad feature of his death is the fact that he was alone when  an attack of heart trouble extinguished his lamp of life.   Mrs. Hull went up to Omaha a week ago last Tuesday to visit relatives urging him to go also but he prefered remaining at home.  She  returned on the Monday evening train at 9, and finding no light in the home entered at the kitchen door.  Striking a match she discovered his lifeless remains in almost
a sitting position against the wall, as though be had leaned against it and gradually   slipped   down, apparently passing away without a struggle, No one can imagine the poor wife's feelings at that moment.  She gave a scream and called the neighbors who offered assistance and sympathy in her hour of
deepest sorrow. The coroner was notified and pronounced his death the result of heart trouble.       PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 15, 1906

John Hull was born at Port Jarvis, N J , May 21,1831, and died at his home in Clarinda, la , November 12, 1906, aged seventy-five years, five months and twenty-one days. He and Mrs Hull were married at Niagara Falls in 1858. Mr. Hull at that time being in the foundry business at Kalamazoo, Mich,, where he remained a few years alfer their marriage. From there they moved to Wellin, Canada, and for several years conducted a grocery business along the line of new railway construction in the Dominion, dealing largely in the time tickets of the workmen. Discontinuing this business, Mr. Hull came to Iowa and located at Newton, where he was in business for several years before coming to Clarinda. He was in the furniture business here for a period of about fifteen years, retiring there from nearly five years ago. He was a man of keen business insight and tireless industry and accumulated a very comfortable fortune.
For forty-seven, years he was a member of the Masonic order and it was very appropriate that the funeral was conducted under the auspices of Nodaway Lodge No. 140 A F. and A. M. from which the attendance was very large. Upon the request of Worshipful Master E. B. Westcott, Dr. T. E. Powers acted as master at the funeral and W L. Luudy as marshall, and the Masonic service was observed  at the grave.  The pall bearers were as follows:   M. R   Ansbach, H. H. Scott, W   A. Henderson,  J. M. Rumbaugh, Harry Edmonds and J P  Kanea, all being Masons. Tha floral offerings were very profuse and choice and many expressions of esteem and friendship for Mr Hull and of sympathy for the bereaved wife were spoken. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 23, 1906

John Hull Found Dead. Mrs. John Hull, who has been visiting her nephew, Mr. Robinson and family at Omaha returned home on the late train last night and took the bus for her home on North Fifteenth   street.  She   reached the house about nine-thirty and entered the home expecting to find her husband ready to greet her.  No one can realize the shock   the poor woman must have suffered wnen upon entering the dark house she stumbled over the dead body of her husband prostrate upon the floor. She went at once for help and in a few minutes her sympathetic neighbors had come to offer whatever aid they could in her awful bereavement.
Coroner Parriott was called up over the phone after Dr. Sellards had pronounced that life was extinct in the prostrate form and from him permission was received to move the body. It was thought unnecessary to hold an inquest, since Mr. Hull was subject to heart trouble and his death evidently resulted from that cause. The funeral will be under the direction of the Masonic order of which Mr. Hull was an honored member. The arrangements, however, will remain incomplete until Mr. Robinson, Mrs. Hull's nephew, arrives here from Omaha.
John Hull has been a familiar figure on our streets and a factor in the business life of the city for many years and his death will be keenly felt by a very wide circle of friends. The death was an extremely sad one and the sympathy of the entire community is extended to Mrs. Hull. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Nov 13, 1906

MRS. N. C. HULL DEAD
The funeral of Mrs. N. C. Hull, widow of the late Geo. Hull, was held from the home of her daughter, Mrs. H. G. Dow on North Fifteenth St., at 1:00 o'clock p.m. Wednesday, conducted by Rev. A. S. Woodard. The singers were Mrs. Jas. Scroggs, Mrs. Glen Whitmore, Guy Lain and Chas. Keeran. Members of the G. A. R. were pall bearers and the many beautiful flowers showed the esteem in which she was held.
Nancy C. Lawver, daughter of Michael and Sarah Lawver, was born in Fairfield, Penn, May 3, 1840 and passed away in Clarinda, Iowa, Oct. 29, 1916, aged 77 years, 5 months, and 26 days. She grew up in the village in which she was born and was married to Geo. Hull Aug. 4, 1859. Seven children were born in this family, three little girls, Elizabeth, Asenath, and Lida, who with their father, have preceeded her to the better world.
There are four living children, Mrs. John Robinson of Centralia, Wash., Mrs. F. L. Douthit of Braddyville, la., Mr. E. M. Hull of Choctaw, Okla., and Mrs. H. G. Dow of Clarinda, la. These and a sister, Mrs. E. J. Hull of Newton, Kans. and a brother, Samuel Lawver of Kingfisher, Okla. are left to mourn.
After the war, she, with her family, moved from Pennsylvania to Knoxville, Ill., where they resided four years, then; coming to Page County, where she lived for 46 years, most of that timer near Braddyville. Five years ago, to the day, she moved, to Clarinda, where she lived with her daughter, Mrs. H. G. Dow until her death.
Five years ago her health began to fail and since then she has been a constant sufferer but through it all never a word of complaint escaped her lips but always a smile of welcome for everyone.
Her great faith in her Heavenly Father was ever her comfort; when in health, three books constituted her reading, her Bible, Pilgrim's Progress, and a series of Moody's Sermons, so in her weakness she had knowledge of many thoughts of comfort and assurance that all things do work together for good to those that love God. The last material which she tried to read was her beloved church paper, "The Northwestern Advocate." From her childhood she was a Christian and many years ago united with the Methodist church to which she was much devoted and interested in every phase of its work.
Her mission in life was service for others and many a fevered lip she held a cup of water to and to many discouraged with the trials of life she spoke words of encouragement.
Her door was always an open door to whoever came to it. She did her part to make the world a little better and has passed on to receive her reward.
One less at home:
The charmed circle broken, a dear face missed day by day form its accustomed place,
But cleansed and saved and perfected by Grace,
One more in Heaven: One more at home:
That home where separation cannot be:
That home whence none is missed eternally
Lord Jesus, grant us all a place with thee,
At home in Heaven.

We wish to thank our friends for the many beautiful acts of kindness shown to us during the many months of illness and death of our mother.

The child was born eight months ago with a tumor on its back, and as the little thing grew the tumor grew also, until last Tuesday it broke. The family doctor was summoned; also Dr. Nash of Maryville. Dr. Nash said that the only possible cure for the child was an operation, and that he could not guarantee a cure even then.
