Shelbina Merchant Dies
A. T. Boling [sic], for over 50 years a well known resident and merchant of Shelbina, died suddenly at his home there Friday night.
Al Boling [sic] was born on a farm in Monroe county 70 years ago last June, and moved to Shelbina with his widowed mother when a boy. He married Miss Jessie McCann of near Paris. He is survived by his widow, a grandson, Phil Frederick, and a daughter, Mrs. Irvin Ahern of Kansas City. Another daughter, Mrs. Lucille Frederick, died 14 years ago this month.
Fifty-two years ago, Mr. Boling [sic] began clerking for the dry goods firm of Minter & Smith and succeeded the late D. G. Minter, the firm becoming Smith & Boling [sic].

— We consider the passing of James McNeely, the loss of a good friend. He was a splendid citizen an ideal father, not only to his own children, but he and his good wife have reared two orphan boys, relatives of Mrs. McNeely, one of which is in the home with Mrs. McNeely in her lonely hours. This is, as is often the case, a sad Xmas in many homes. The passing of Al Boling [sic] of Shelbina, means another loss to our country and town. He was just what he was, to our notion one of the best merchants we ever knew. He sold the goods and stood behind them, was fair and square in all his dealings. Both men were good Christian characters and their passing means a great loss.
