a large number called to pay their
last respects during the time.
The services were held by Father
W. C. Middleton, rector of the St.

brated the Episcopal h'irial service.
During the service a number of
the old and loved hymns were given
by friends from Omaha who were in
attendance at the funeral.
The interment was delayed until
Wednesday afternoon to permit the
arrival of his sister, Mrs. Alta Bowen
of Seattle to reach this city, as the
word rf her coming was not received
until the funeral date was set. After
the arrival of the sister the burial
will b held at th Oak Hill cemetery
in this city.

tle army of unemployed marshalled
by A. J. Cook, secretary of the Brit

start the 200-mile trek for the pur
pose of impressing parliament with
the needs of the unemployed.

New England Communities Take Up
Work of Rebuilding Ruined j

Boston, Nov. 9. N'ew England's
flood-sticken communities Tuesday
i took up the work of rebuilding their
' ruined homes and industries as the
I swollen streams fell back into their
normal channels and communication
I was gradually restored with the out

i Late Tuesday night there were
I few places which relief agencies had
not reached. As outsiders entered
J the last of the towns in northern
Vermont, cut off since last Thursday
by the flood, they found men armed
with picks and shovels digging them-

houses and piles oi mua, erecting
temporary bridges and laying out
roadways over which much-needed
supplies may be brought.

there appeared no further danger
from the waters. The Connecticut

residents of towns and cities along

No Food Shortage.

partments at Montpelier and set ma

tions to normal.
There were few reports of food

there were no fatalities and that

Air Quarters Moved.
The army air headquarters estab
lished at Concorn, N. II., were or
dered transferred to Burlington, Vt.,
in order to be in closer touch with
the region most seriously affected and
preparations were immediately made
to move all of the aerial activities to
that point. An army pontoon bridge
was on its way from Fort Dupont,
Del., to Burlington, for use in re
storing communications between Bur
lington and WinooskI so that relief
may be carried along the Winooski
river valley where the flood claimed
86 lives.
As a measure of relief by which
the railroads, their lines disrupted
by washouts and wrecked bridges,
might render aid more quickly, the
interstate commerce commerce com
merce commission in Washington is
sued an order relieving the carriers
of the routine restrictions applying
to their operations and
permitting
them to use any routes available.
President Coolidge, guided by his
knowledge of his home state, was
credited with being of the opinion
that no measures for future flood
control could be taken, but undeter
red by any fears of the future, work
was started in the wrecked towns
to rebuild homes on the sites which
were swept by the high water.

Mrs. Emily Fontenelle, 94; Confined

Thrilling Stories.
From Monday's Pally
Mrs. Emily Fontenelle, 94, one of
Nebraska's oldest and earliest resi
dents, is ill at her home in Decatur,
Neb.
For many years. Mrs. Fontenelle,
who was bcrn in St. Louis and mar
ried Henry Fontenelle at Beilevue, in
1S55, has entertained her neighbors
and friends with tales of the early
days.
Mrs. Fontenelle is a third cousin
of the late Peter A. Sarpy, for whom
Sarpy county was named. Her hus
band was engaged with Sarpy in the
fur trading busimss, in the employe
of the American Fur company.
Tells of Kit Carson.
Later the Fcntenolles moved to a
homestead north of Beilevue where
their seven children were born. One
Eugene, survive.-.
One of Mrs. Fontenelle's favorite
tales of the early days concerned Kit
Carson.
"I remember seeing him at Beile
vue," her story ran. "He was mar
ried there to a pretty Indian maiden,
Moneta. an aunt of my husband.
They were very happy. Two children
were born to them. Word came of an
uprising of the Sioux, and Kit rode
away on scout duty. He never re
returned. Scout Never Returned.
"When the Omahans moved to their
present home in 1S54. Moneta and
her children came with them. But
her children died about 10 and 12
years of age. When Moneta, for her
somber and melancholy ways, came
to be known as 'Old Granny.' At
eventime, 'grany' would go to the top
of a certain favorite hill, and, shad
ing her eyes, look longingly toward
the west, as if trying to discern some
object in the distance."
Mrs. Fontenelle always ended her
story, "But her hope was never real-
