Married:-On Wednesday, Sept 28, at the residence of C H Shubert, Linn Creek MO, Mr E M Easley and Mrs May E Crouch of Lebanon, Rev Wm Lane of Camden Co officiating.  We congratulate Mr Easley on his escape from celibacy, and wish the couple happiness.
--A creature whom we mentioned a short time ago, as having been drunk and disturbing the peace of the community, repeated the disgraceful exhibition last Saturday, and among other of his playful diversions attempted to "lick the Editor." We are glad to say he didn't succeed, and his eyes are now draped in mourning for his deceased character.  We do not intend again to disgrace our pages with his name, as he has been too highly honored in that way already, but we would advise him for his own good, not to ship any more Editors, lest he "wake up the wrong passenger" again.

DIED
On Sunday, October 2 1881, of remittent fever, Ethel T., only daughter of J W and Minnie C Edgell, aged 8 months and 23 days.  And thus, she whom God gave, has returned to God.  The lovely first born infant, the light of the household and joy of her parents hearts, remained on earth but long emough to gain the love of all who knew her, to take it to the grave.  Her memory will linger over green in the hearts of those who so reluctantly parted from her in the path of life, but their sorrow should be sweetened by the thought that their darling is forever free from care and pain, and that what for a time is lost to them is found in Paridise.
In the well-know words of that well-known poet (Burns) we can say:----
    "Here lies a rose, a budding rose
        Blasted before its bloom;
      Whose innocence did sweets disclose
         Beyond that flower's perfume.

       "To those who for her loss are grieved,
          This consolation's given-
         She's from a world of woe relieved,
           And blooms a rose in heaven.

Two Drowned
 
Wife and daughter of Walter Stwensen perish when runaway truck catapults family into Niangua River
Mrs. Walter Stwensen, 42, and daughter, 7, were drowned in the Niangua, at Hart bridge, six miles sw of Linn Creek, on Highway NO. 54, Wednesday noon, in a motor accident.
Mr. Stwensen was saved by Mrs. Lee Webster and son, Hobart Long, who threw the drowning man a rope and drew him to shore.  The survivor unquestionably owes his life to the presence of mind and speedy, efficient help of the cool headed boy and his mother who heard the crash at their home, near by.  Hobert snatched a rope and they sped to the river, barely in time.
Stwensen was cut, scratched and bruised, but Drs. Moore and Moulder who treated the injuries, pronounced them not very serious.
The rescurers who went to Mr Stwensens aid caught glimpses of the woman and child, but they were quickly swept from view.  The bodies were not recovered until Wednesday night.  It was then found that Mrs Stwensen had been deeply gashed across the forehead, exposing the skull, when the truck struck the bridge railing, so that she was probably unconsious from then on.
Before they sank and while the agonized and suffering husband and father was struggling to reach them, he saw the little girl clinging to floating bedding, and heard her calling to him, until her support gave way.  Neither could survive more than a very few minutes in the icy water.
Mr. Stwensen, who is a blacksmith, and his family were pitched into the river when the heavily loaded truck in which they were moving from Kimball, Nebraska, to Stoutland, wrecked the steering gear and rushed down the hill at terrific speed, smashed through the bridge railing and landed bottom up at the water's edge, a complete wreck, part of the household goods were lost.
Relatives were notified, and Mr Stwensen is being cared for at the home of Mr and Mrs Webster, near the scene of the accident.  The bodies of the unfortunate woman and child were buried in Roach cemetery, today, Friday, both bodies in one casket.
