DERBY NEWS:

R.E. MORRIS went Thursday to Oklahoma, on business.

MARY ANNE MORRISON died at the home of her son, HENRY MORRISON, on last Saturday evening. She was born in Ireland in 1815, and came to this country while quite young. She was married in Pennsylvania, and soon after moved to Ohio. From Ohio she moved to Illinois and thence to Lucas County, where she has lived for 39 years. She spent one year in Nebraska. She has lived to a ripe old age and has now gone to join those on the other side. She was well known in and around Derby, having spent many years near here. The funeral took place Monday afternoon and the body was laid to rest in the Derby Cemetery. She was a charter member of the Derby Presbyterian Church.

MACK ALLEN returned Friday, from a visit with his sister, MRS. COE, at
Milton, Iowa.

REV. MARTIN KEAST was a caller at the Derby High School, Monday forenoon.

The community was saddened to learn of the death of MR. I.C. CHAPMAN on
Saturday evening. His many friends extend their deepest sympathy to his
sorrowing family. His condition was not generally known to be so dangerous
and we are sorry indeed to lose a citizen and fellow townsman like MR.
CHAPMAN. Funeral services were held at the M.E. Church on Tuesday at 11 o
clock, Rev. M.H. Keast officiating.

MRS. WALTER BREWER, of Chariton, spent Tuesday in Derby with relatives.

The funeral of the infant son of MR. and MRS. ENSER LARIMER took place at
their home Tuesday afternoon, Feb. 2, after which the body was laid to rest
in the Derby Cemetery.
