Otto E. Lutz from the vicinity of
Murray was a passenger this morn

matters of business.
Booki! Books! Books! We have

nal Office,
spent his young manhood, later mov
ing west and locating at LaPorte,
Indiana, where he was married and
after a short time there the young
couple came to Iowa and settled near
what was then Brush Creek, but
which is now Arlington, and here
the Wescott family resided on a farm
and it was there that the son, C.
C. Wescott. was born. Later Mr. and
Mrs. Wescott returned to LaPorte,
where Mr. Wescott entered a cloth
ing store of that city and which was
the starting of his long and success
ful career as a merchant.
It was in the year 1S79 that Mr.
and Mrs. Wescott and their family
arrived at Plattsmouth and it was
only a short time later that the C.
E. Wescott clothing store was launch
ed in the business life of Plattsmouth
and the motto of the proprietor of
the store, "One Price and No Mon
key Business," was made famous in
all parts of the state and represented
distinctly the policy of Mr. Wescott.
In later years the eldest son, C. C.
Wescott, was admitted to partnership
and the younger son. E. II. Wescott,
on the completion of his school work,
was interested in the business of the
Arm.
In the year 1906 Mr. C. E. Wes
cott retired from active business in
this city and turned over to his two
sons the well established business,
which has since been known as the
firm of C. E. Wesott's Sons.
In 1910 Mr .and Mrs. C. E. Wes
cott departed from Nebraska to lo
cate at Los Angeles where their
youngest son. Earl E. Wescott, had
located previously, and since that
time this estimable couple have been
spending their declining years there,
interspersed with visits back to the
old home in Nebraska.
The friends hero are trusting that
Mr. and Mrs. Wescott may enjoy
many more years of happiness.
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Elliott and
two children of St. Joheph, Mo., ar
rived here this morning for an over
Sunday visit at the home of Rev. and
Mrs. H. G. MeClusky. Mrs. Elliott
was formerly Miss Maurine Hughes,
