ent enjoyed several musical numbers,
which were furnished by Atkinson

i president of the club, was “master of
I ceremonies.’’ The feature of the even
ing was a talk by Judge Malone, who
gave a number of exceedingly inter
esting reminiscences of school life in
I this county during pioneer days. Sev
! eral striking comparisons as regards
j buildings and other material equip
| ment, salaries, and so forth, “then”
j and “now,” were made by the genial
I/Judge. His talk brought out the fact
! that we may well be thankful that we
I are teaching in the present generation
i instead of during an earlier period,
i Th Judge, with the hearty approval
I of ,-11 present, termed himself the
."Dean of the School Men of Holt

auto accident fatal to
MR. AND MRS. WILL ORSBORN
Will Orsborn of Ewing, Nebraska,
was almost instantly killed, and his
wife so badly injured that she died
Wednesday morning, when their Ford
sedan turned over with them about ten
o'clock Saturday forenoon on High
way No. 8, twelve miles north of
O'Neill.
Mr. and Mrs. Orsborn were enroute
from their home in Ewing, Nebraska,
to the home of their son Ray and
family at Lynch, Nebraska. The fatal
accident occurred on the north end of
the first jog west in the highway north
of O’Neill; Mr. Orsborn stated to John
A. Robertson, who arrived at the scene
of the wreck a few minutes before he
passed away, that he thought that the
! road turned to the west instead of to
the east at that point and that he dis
covered the mistake when it was too
late to make the turn; the car plunged
over the embankment and turned over
onto the top pinning Mr. Orsborn be
neath but throwing Mrs. Orsborn
clear of the wreckage. Mr. Orsborn
was injured internally and passed
away a short time after he wa§ re
moved from beneath the car; he was
able to converse with his rescurers up
until the time he died and no one
thought that he was seriously injured.
Mrs. Orsborn suffered a broken right
arm, severe scalp wounds, and a num
ber of wounds on the face; she was
unconscious when found and remained
in the same condition until she died.
She was an invalid; having lost the
use of her right side about five years
ago as the result of a paralytic stroke.
No one saw the accident but Mr.
Orsborn stated that a number of cars
had passed each way before a small;
boy who was out hunting with a small
rifle happened along and stopped a
car. George Harrington and M. R.
Sullivan of this city were among those
who assisted in caring for the victims.
Mr. Orsborn was brought to the Big
lin undertaking parlors where the body
remained until Monday, when it was
taken to Ewing; funeral services were
held from the family home in Ewing
at two o’clock Tuesday afternoon, con
ducted by Rev. M. A. Frazelle, pastor
of the Episcopal church. Burial was
in the Ewing cemetery.
Wm. Orsborn was born December
15, 1800. at Amboy, Illinois. They
came to Holt county in the fall of
1005 and located near Dorsey, where
they owned and operated a farm for
twenty years prior to three years ago
when they moved to Ewing, Nebraska.
Mr. and Mrs. Orsborn were the par
ents of six children, five daughters
an i one son, Mrs. Chas. Reynolds,
Marshall, Missouri; Mrs. Hurley Bink
erd, Lynch, Nebraska, deceased; Mrs.
Ora Thomas, Lead, South Dakota;
Mrs. Herbert Webb, Ewing, Nebraska;
Ray Orsborn, Lynch., Nebraska.
Mrs. Ella Elmira Orsborn was bom
December 15, 1871, and passed away
in the Dr. Gilligan hospital in this
city at 8:30 o’clock Wednesday even
ing. The remains were taken to the
family home in Ewing this Thursday
morning. The Frontier is unable to
collect any data to Mrs, Orsborn at
this time.
Mr. and Mrs. Orsborn were well
known by the old settlers of the north
eastern part of the county; their many
friends will learn of their death with
deep sorrow^ _
The children were all present at the
funeral services for their father as
was also a sister, Mrs. Frank Coltrin
and son, Fairfield, Nebraska.
