WORLD WAR I VETERAN DIED AT ELLSINORE

"James Queen, ex-service man in the World War, died at the home of his mother, Mrs. E. P. Queen [Ida May (ADAMS) QUEEN], of Ellsinore, Sunday night. Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon by Rev. R. E. Carpenter, local Methodist pastor. The remains were laid to rest in the Henson cemetery.

Jim, it will be remembered, volunteered in the Navy at the beginning of the war and served until after peace was made. When discharged he was suffering from the effects of pneumonia and after spending two or more years in a hospital in St. Louis, he appeared to be well on the way to recovery and returned to his home. Tuberculosis developed however, and after a hard fight lasting over two years, he fell a victim to that dread disease.

The bereaved family has the sympathy of the entire community."
