Editor Ingham County News. Dear Sir; In tlio Detroit Free

Press of last S;iliirday is an item from Mt. Pleasant, Mich., stating that George Francisco, aged 12, for many years a resident of that phice, died (in JMarch 28; tliat he Horved in the civil war in tlie .llth N. Y. Vohinteors, and that ho liad the somewhat singidiir experience of having had his funeral sermon yireachod fifty years ago. As a matter of fact he had two funeral sermons preached tlie same day in July, ISCI; one at the school house near his homo, which answered as a church for the neighborhood, and one at a eampmeeting in an adjoining town where he was well known.

Aa boys we were near neighbofs. On Aug. 7, 1862, he and I and my brother enlisted at the ages of 20, 18 and 10, respectively, in a com­pany that was taken into the -llth Infantry as Co. C, and during the year I remained at the front, we three were tent-mates. The .llth had been actively engaged in all the fighting of the Army of the Potomac up to that time, and witli two now companies added to part­ly take the places made vacant by .shot and shell, the old regiment was given full ojiportunity to go on and complete its record, York-town, Hanover C. H„ Gaines Mill, Malvern JliU, Bull Hun 2nd, and minoi- affairs were already in­scribed on its banner, and after wo joined, Fredericksburg, Chan-cellorsvillo, Aldie, Gettysburg, and the "hell" of the Wilderness, May 5, 0 and 7, were added before l''raneiseo was wounded.

During the night of May 7, 18GI, the boys tore their "way

through the Virginia jungle from the Wilderness battlefield toward Spotsylvania, and on the morning of May 8, witlunit rest or food, the l l th N. Y. and £3rd Pa., "But-torfiold's twins," were ordered to ilrive a scpuid of cavalry fj'om

t h e crest of Laurel Hill. Charging u]) the o)ien slope they found I>ongstreet's whole corps behind strong works, ready to welcome them with bloody hands to hos­pitable graves. A few got back uninjured, a few were captured, the remainder were left where they fell, Francisco among the number. A bullet struck him in front of his left oar iind •went through his head, taking his right eye out. Some of liis comrades saw him fall, but none knew whether dead or alive. lie lay on the field .suffering the tortures of purga­tory for two days, when, as ho was still alive, the ilohnnies picked him up and sent him to the hos­pital attached to Libl)y ])rison, where his dainty viands wore a dainty hunk of mouldy corn bread and a delicate slice of tainted biicon, ITis friends know ho had boon shot close to the rebel works on Jjaurol Hill, but nothing more They, like thousands of others in those days, hoped to hear from their missing one, even to hear that he was in a Confederate prison, but waited in vain. Finally, as no word came, on a Sunday in July, at a school house which did duty as a church near his old home, a great congregation gath­ered to hear George Francisco's funeral sermon, and on the same day, in an adjoining town where he was well known, at an M, E. eampmeeting, another sermon up­on the same subject was delivered by one of the preachers. On the Wednesday following the family received a letter from Camp Pa­role, near Annapolis, Md., saying "George Francisco oame on the boat from Richmond yesterday, nearly starved, and so poor and thin that he don't cast a shadow, but he will pull through,"

He came home with the sight of the left .eye permanently in­jured, and some of those who re­mained at home and got rich out of the misfortunes of their coun­try, would remark as th^y s a ^ George slowly picking his. way along the street, • "This- country can never be prosperous while it pays out such an eiiormous sum for pensions."

"One ot my friends advised me ta take Vinol, and it has done me great good. The tired, worn-out feeling la all gone, and 1 am. strong, vigorous and well. The stomach trouble soon disappeared and now I eat heartily and have perfect digestion. I wish every tired, weak, nervous woman could have Vinol, for I never spent any money in my lite that did me so much good as that I spent for Viuol." Marie Rlchter, Detroit, Mich.

The Flood at Columbus.

Columbu,s, O., April 2, 1913, Ingham County News,

Mason, Mich. The Editor: The traffic is open

to and from Columbus, and condi­tions are under orderly control and well adjusted at present. Very strict hygeinic measures are being ob.served in every detail, and the work of clearing and reconstruc­tion is progressinng with remark­able rapidity.

It is very evident, after realiz­ing the awful results of this flood, that the news reporters wore quite unable to picture conditions on their real magnitude and severity. It is almost impossible to realize, oven with the unquestionable evi­dence on every side, how groat a volumn of water poured over West Columb\is, Evidence such as hay, straw and other debris still lodged^upon the telephone wires, and hon.sc^, swept from thoir foundation, overturned in the street, are very common.

The number of bodies recovered from the mud and ruins are slow­ly api)roaching the two hundi'cd •mark. As the water broke over the lovoes it rapidly flooded an area several miles in extent, ren­dering escape im|)ossible for those not previously warned.

Even though the water rose rapidly, in a dangerous swerling current, many victims were res­cued from roofs and attics by moans of row boats and impro­vised rafts. Panic, momentary in­sanity and suicide were reported among many of the frantic vic­tims. The poor working classes suffered the greatest losses, leav­ing them penniless and without employment, their only posses­sions, however meagre, complete­ly ruined.

The Ohio state militia is doing splendid work all over the state. Strict order is being rigidly en­forced. It has been reported, al­though without proof, that seven­teen "looters" have been shot down in Columbus. Pres. Tomp-son of the Ohio State University has suspended all sessions of the University, and nearly every stu­dent is enlisted in relief work. Capt. Converse of the Ohio State University Cadets has a well-or­ganized patrol • and hygenic ser­vice over the entire flooded dis­trict. N

Food and clothing is issued daily to the homeless, poverty stricken sufferers, with a careful medical attendance to combat the first symptom of any infectious out­break. Mud, refuse and all debries are being quickly removed and temporary, lodging provided for the sufferers. yThe loss of property defies all

/Estimate. The water rose from 40 to 50 feet above the river level. Only two bridges on the Olen-tangy withstood the rush of wa­ter. \

Although the acute suffering will soon be relieved, Columbus cannot recover from the misfor­tune for some months, and from the,rememberance of it, never.

Very respectfully. Harry L. Cotton.

School Report.

Elmer Barnes, Bernice Parker, Clarence Thorburn, Marie Barnes and Edith Oberlin of the Harper school were in perfect attendance during the school month closing Friday, April 4.

The following story is one writ­ten by a ten year old pupil when the class was asked to write a story of Spring. The story is purely original. If there is another ten year old wh6 cm equal it, write:

A Story of Spring. Once there was a little boy who

lived alone with his father and mother. His name was Nelson. lie had had a lot of fun in the win-tor, coasting down hill and skat­ing, but he was glad when spring was coming.

One day when he was figuring on playing, ball with some boy friends, it began to rain.

"0, dear," he said, "I don"t .see why it had to rain today."

He had to stay in the house all day and was very cross. He could think of nothing to play. When night came he was very glad to go to bed. Many times during the day he had thought, "0, 1 wish it was ^winter, now. The rain sounds so dreary it makes me lonely."

Almost as soon as he had touched • the bed he thought he saw a figure beside him.

"I am Spring," she said, ''I bring the birds and the flowers; but to do this I must have rain to make the flowiers grow. So I send the rain, and after the rain the grass is green and fresh, the flowers spring up, the birds sing sweetly, the air is pure and fresh, and there is a feeling of new life in everything; all this I bring. So bo not impatient when you hear the rain pattering against the win­dow pane and all thoughts of a game are spoiled, but be glad, for the morrow will bring better thoughts."

"But," said Nelson, "But I." "Come with mo," said Spring. She led him along the road on every side of which ho saw beautiful flowers and heard the songs of many birds. The trees were in full bloom and everything seemed to say, "All hail, gentle Spring," and he heard two flowers shout, "Hur­rah for Spring!" •

Then Spring led him along to a beautiful tree bursting with blos­soms. She made a wreath and placed on his head. Then he heard the tree speak. It said, "Little boy, you should be glnd that the rains come, for there would be no flowers without it, and what would you do without them? It would be very warm and you would be miserable and wish you were not alive."

"Nelson! Nelson!" called his mother, "Get up and you can have your ball game now."

Then he opened his eyes, found himself in bed, and saw the sun­shine streaming in through the window.

He never complained when he heard it raining, after that, but thought, "How much nicer it will bo after the rain."

Obituary.

Mrs. Olive R. Stevens died at hor home one mile northwest of Mason, Monday evening, March 31, 1913,

Olive R. Warner was born at Curryville, N. Y., July 20, 1815 She was one of twelve children, six girls and six boys, of which she was the oldest girl.

She was married to Horace Stevens at Medina, N. Y., in 1863. Five years later they moved to Michigan, locating in the town­ship of Alaiedon, where they lived until 1900, when they moved to the Henry Reeves farm east of Mason, Mr. Stevens died June 2, 1902.

Five weeks ago one of her brothers, Charles VVarner, died very suddenly at his home in Caladonia, and the shock of these deaths is thought to have hastened her death.

She is survived by two sons, Ed­ward H. of Alma, and B. P. of Ma­son, and three brothers, George Warner of Williamston, and Elmer and 0. B, Warner of Webberville.

She was a good and loving wife and a kind mother, and was loved by all who knew her, and had always a kind word fop all.

Ask the Cancer Man He'll Fix 'Em.

MASON, April'.', 1!U3, I iun a lady (i!) yeans old; I have been

a rosidenl. of Mason -I.'! years, 1 had live eanoers cured by the cancer man of our town, Mr, li'.- S. I5anks. I called him .Ian. 12, 1013, he applied t.lie cancer lii|iiid and in live or six day.s they were all sloughed oil'. They healed liiciily and sieadlly till ihey were as smooth as thoiiifh they had never been. The one on my body was of 2!) years standing, one on my hand was of four years standing, ^rid one near the left corner of my lower lip was ol' nine years standing. There were two on my chin near by, but they were invisible until the one on my lip was treated, and the same treatment killed tliem both, and either of them was larger than tlie one on my lip, and a strip of good llesh being between each cancer that remained natural. T h a t proved to me t h a t the liquid worked only on dis­ease. I had heard tliis report by sev­eral, but it was proven in my own case.

If any of yon have a cancer or sev­eral of them, jou need not be one bit afraid to have him treat it. for I know lie understands liis business as weir as his medicine. With best wish­es I recommend him to all.

7 would rather sell you a Studebaker^

When your dealer tells you that you know he's honest.

He may have cheaper wagons in stock, but he knows the Studebaker is the best.

And so do you. He wants to give such good wagon value

that you will come back and demand a buggy made by the same people.

Studebakers have been building wagons for sixty years and they have won the confidence of dealer and farmer by building—not the cheapest—but the best wagons.

Whether you live in city, town or country, there's a Studebaicer to fit your needs. Farm wagons, trucks, business and delivery wagons, surreys, buggies and runabouts, with harness for each of the same high quality as Studebaker vehicles.
