SORROW STRICKEN HOME!
Roy O'Connor Called Hence
Manhood's Dawn.
at
BASE BALL.
■H-
For the third time the white horse
- and his rider have brought sorrow to
the home of Mr. and Mrs. James
O'Connor, bearing to that home beyond human knowledge their third
and sole surviving son and heir.
■ Typhoid fever laid its hand upon
Eoy O'Connor and eleven days after
toe succumbed to the disease, death
coming last Saturday morning. The
funeral occured from the Congregational church Tuesday, Eev.-A. L.
Woodlock speaking words of consolation to the bereaved family, and the
interment was made at tbe Farwell
cemetry by the Side of the other two
sons, but the three will probably be
moved to Cherry Grove next fall.
Eoy O'Connor was born in Vernon
township but spent nine of the seventeen years, eleven months and fourteen days of his life in- Clare. He was
a member of the city high school at
the time of his death but with characteristic industry put in Saturdays
and a number of hours each week, out
of school hours, at .work at Woolsey's
knitting mills. Possessed of those unassuming but sterling qualities of reliability, he was highly respected
among hisschoolmates and the joy of
the home.
The balm of human sympathy is
- most consoling in the hour of bereavement and seldom has there been such
general sympathy in our community
asthat manifested for the sorrowing
parents. The floral tributes from
lodges and private individuals were
many and varied. A broken wheel
from tlie city high school, atl. emblem
from the Maccabees aiid One from the
Oddfellows and Kebekiihswiib a pillow from loved ones and many other
" wreaths and similar offerings all attested the feeling of the donors.
', The following from a distance Were
present at the funeral: Mrs. Charles
Searls, Mrs. O'Connor's mother, of
Tuscola Co.; Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Stevens 6f Lake; Miss'Hattie Dersnah of
Mb- Pleasant; Mr. and TSxL *"& E. Wil-
. ley and Glen Willey of Mt. Pleasant
and Mr.'and Mrs. T 5. Dorsey of Hat-
.jrison.
Mt. Pleasant 6;   Clare 2.
At the ball park Saturday in a well
played game the Mt. P.eavant high
school base ball team defeated our
high school team, the score standing
6 to 2. The features of the game were
a clean two base hit over center field
to the fence by Beading, a running
catch by Hagle and a good pick ups at
third and throws to first by Brown.
Mt. Pleasant pilfered several bases
from first to second Both teams were
weak in hitting. The Mt. Pleasant
boys are giants in size in comparison
with most of the Clare boys and expect to stand well in competition with
high school teams anywhere in the
state.      , *

An important paro of the working

At the completion of the field work,
John White, of this city, *in engineer
of years of experience, who was in
charge of the survey for his company,
gave the Sentinel a number of important facts.

The Undersigned, your committee
on state fair exhibits for Clare countyj
at this time urge farmers in particular to plan for a blue ribbon exhibit of
some kind to send down to the state
fair at Pontiac nex,t fall. Samples of
grain in straw Or by the peck, grasses,
vegetables,- in fact all the products of
the farm. These will be collected at
no expense to the farmed and you
should bear iri mind that this is the
one sure way to lesson our 'axa'tibn,
by showing the developemehfc of our
county. Any individual having stock
can ship in* the car that will he chartered for this county's;exhibitsatyour
proportion of the cost of the car.
The small exhibit this county made
last yeat was jwell compensated, aud
there is no reason why with -a better
and more complete exhibit this county
shouldn't make a still better showing.
