A SAD, SUDDEN DEATH: ^ The Lifeless Body ot Thomas 1 Howze Found in Oasoline House of Bailey Lumber & 1 Manufacturing Co.?Shocks i Entire Community. hasl Friday morning a Unit 8 o'clock the lifeless Ixxly of Thomas j Howze, youngest son of Mr. and c Mrs. K. C. Howze, was found lying Q in the gasoline house of the Bailey Manufacturing Company, which is * located in rear of the stable of 7. Mayor R. L. McNally. When it n was told in the town that Tom Howze was dead, all who heard it ft were shocked lieyond expression. ^ On the afternoon of the day before .. aliout 4:30 o'clock, Mr. J. E. Ker- ^ shaw, a plumber, in whose employ Thomas Howze was, told him that o the gasoline can was empty and to r] fill it. After telling Tom to fill the ^ can, Mr. Kershaw went to attend to some business and saw nor heard C any more that day of Tom Howze, (' and the other men who were working for Mr. Kershaw went to their rcsnective nlneos nf nluu1i> nhn. Sm t\ work hours were over, thinking nothing more of Tom Howze, as it n, was his business to fill the can and \\ put it in the shop. Upon arriving at the shop the \ next morning Mr. Kershaw and his workmen looked for the can of gasoline, but it was not there. Mr. p; Kershaw then concluded Tom was sick and went to the house and in- p( quired of Mrs. Howze where Tom was, she replied that he was not ft there; did not come home at all the night l>eforc, that she thought he H had stayed all night with Mr. Ker-Jfu sliaw. Mr. Kershaw then told her J) that he had not seen Tom since 4.HO o'clock the afternoon before. p Mr. Kershaw then hurried to the vj gasoline house where, to his utter horror, he found the dead boy. To all appearances Tom had gone p into the gasoline house and had drawn a measure full and. put it e] into the can, set the measure under \y the spout and with hand on the spigot was overcome by the fumes p of the gasoline and having a weak heart, death resulted. The door of q the gasoline house was open when Mr. Kershaw reached there, there- jr fore there could not have been suffocation or noxious gasses. The p coroner was notified, a jury empannellcd and the verdict rendered was that Thomas Howze came to his death from natural causes. The p, physicians who made the. post mor- 5* tern examination agree that death was caused by heart failure. It is p supposed that he walked rapidly to the gasoline house, went in and in p a stooping position drew the gasoline, inhaled the fumes, that being _ overheated and having a weak heart was overcome and fell forward un- j, conscious and died. This is one of ^ the saddest deaths that lias ever! occurred in Union. Thomas Howzc'jj was only 1(? years old, a bright, 'q steady, sober, industrious, quiet* y and generally liked lx>y, a favorite j among his companions. (01 The interment was in the Grace 0] M. E. Church cemetery Sunday 10 o'clock a. m. Rev. 1). M. McLeod, y pastor, conducted the services. \ The pall-bearers were three of his schoolmates, Starkes Hamilton, ^ Wallace Gibbs, Jobn McDow, and (j Mr. Dan Cauble, Mr. Jason Norman \j and Mr. L. J. Hames. The heartfelt sympathy of the j? entire community is felt and ex- (> pressed for the grief stricken ami bereaved parents, sisters and y brother. WOMEN'S* MODERATION OP CLUBS.
