Notes
Birth Notes:
All of the documentation except his gravestone gives his birth date as 28 June 1889 including his draft registration card which he filled out and signed. Therefore even though his gravestone gives his birth date as 18 June 1889, I believe that 28 June is correct.

High School Girls in Dangerous Accident

An accident that might have been fraught with very serious results occurred to three high school girls last Tuesday morning. They were Misses Velma Ball, Loraine Holliday and Neva Duncan. They were driving on Pine Street near the Jamison home en route to school when an axle of the buggy broke and the horse ran away turning the vehicle over. All three were spilled out and Miss Holliday was somewhat crippled, the others escaping injury except to their nerves.
