A few weeks ago, a 15 year old youth, , son of Mr. and Mrs. Bunyon ? Shaw, climbed one of the steel towers I. of the Southern Power Company's lines near Monroe. The boy's hand j came in contact with one of the high! voltage wires, and in the twinkling, of an eye his life was snuffed out. j The parents of the boy, of course, j were greatly distressed. T^iey knew the power company was not "respon sible for their son's death, and did not attempt to make the company pay the damages." One day last week the Southern Power Company's claim agent sought out the humble home of the Shaw family. He was sympa thetic and the father and mother of the dead boy told him they did not hold the company he represented re sponsible. Learning that the funeral expenses of the lad who had met his death were $150 the Southern Power Com. ipariyV agent paid that amount. And when the mother of the lad said she had ? no money for a monument, the company's agent promptly added $76 for that purpose. ? Monroe Enquirer. Man Takes His Own Life Newberry, June 27.? George D.
