It is with great melancholy feelings that we note the death of brother John Beall of Warren Ridge. Brother Beall came to his death under the following circumstances. Last Monday while on horseback driving cattle, his horse slipped on the frozen ground and fell, precipitating his rider to the ground and his foot holding fast in the stirrup, he was dragged and kicked, which proved his death. He however, with the aid of help, rode to his home where he soon became speechless and helpless and where he breathed his last breath Tuesday.
He was an active member of the Jefferson Grange and was buried on Thursday in the honors of the Patrons of Husbandry, which is the first demonstration of that kind in our community. Quite a number of Patrons, relations and friends were present and they formed one of the largest processions that has ever been seen in this neighborhood.
