From Wednesday's I")aily
The trip of James Sours, aged 16.
from Casper, Wyoming, to Sheridan,
Arkansas. was stopped yesterday
afternoon when the young man suff
ered the very severe injury to his
right foot at LaPIatte when the mem
ber was caught beneath the wheel on
a Missouri Pacific freight ear.
The young man had shipped his
clothes and suitcase to Sheridan.
Arkansas, where he states he thinks
his relatives are still lving. and had
then started from Casper to bum his
way to the southland. At South
Omaha he had been caught attempt
ing to ride a freight on the Missouri
Pacific southward bound and had
been put off. but evidently failed to
heed the demand of the train crew
and crept back on the train. When
reaching LaPIatte where the freight
stopped for water, the young man
alighted and when the train started
out he attempted to get into a box
car but missed his hold and fell, one j
foot falling on the track and before'
he could get it out of clanger the toes
of ihe right foot had been very badly
injured. .
The young man was brought on in-
to Plattsmouth and taken to the ;
offices of the Drs. Livingston where
the injured foot was given attention
and it was thought that the boy
would escape without any great per
manent injury to the foot aside from
the big toe which was crushed quite
badly.
After the treatment here Sours was
taken to Omaha and placed in the
Missouri Pacific ward at the Lord
Lister hospital where he will receive
treatment and remain until the foot
is healed up from the effects of the
accident.

From Wednesday's Daily
Last night while enroute home
from the Mayo hospital at Rochester. J
Minnesota, where he has been lor
the past two weeks, Clarence L. Beal.
clerk of the district court, passed
away, death coming after a long and
severe illness that has lasted since
last February.
The announcement that the wife
was bringing the husband home
reached here yesterday and "oore the
sad news that hope of the recovery oi ,
the patient had been abandoned, but!
it had been hoped by the ramlly that!
their loved one might be allowed to
reach the home to spend his last !
hours among the scenes that He had
loved so well, but these wishes were
in vain as the death of Mr. Beal oc
curred while the train that was
bearing him home was but some six
ty miles out of Rochester. The body
was taken from the train at Mankato.
and prepared for burial and ship
ment home.
The body accompanied by Mrs.
Beal and infant son and Everett
Noble, brother of Mrs. Bcai. reached
Omaha at 11 o'clock this morning and
was met there bv the members of the
family, who accompanied the funeral
party on the last sad journey back to
the home here-.
Mr. Beal was taken sick last Feb
ruary, his attack coming on quite
suddenly, taking him from his duties
in the office of the clerk of the district
court which he had just taken over.
From the beginning the case had
a very serious aspect that failed to
show improvement in the passing
weeks and finally led to his being
taken to the Methodist hospital at
Omaha where he was treated for sev
eral weeks. After a stay at the hospi
tal he apparently was better and was
able to return home a few weeks ago
and for several days was able to be
up and around a part of the time
but later a relapse made his case more
serious and he was returned to the
hospital. It was finally determined
to have him taken to Rochester, Min
nesota, to the Mayo hospital where
he was given an examination and
treatment and the decision made that
his case was beyond help of medical
aid.
The sad news of the failure of the
mission to the hospital was -conveyed
here to the family from the wife who
has been at Rochester and with the
patient when the last long journey
home was started, death coming to
claim the spirit of the husband and
father ere the journey was hardly
started.
The death of Mr. Beal has come
with great sorrow and the entire com
munity and who tender to the bereav
ed wife and little son. as well as the
parents and other relatives, their
deepest sympathy in this dark hovir
when the separation has come into
the family circle and called from the
home the husband and father, leav
ing a place that cannot be filled and
the pain of which only the tender
hand of time can soften to the sor
rowing hearts of the members of the
family circle.
Clarence L. Beal was, at the time
of his death, thirtv-four years of age
and has spent his lifetime in this
community where he was loved and
esteemed by a very large circle of
friends. He was the second son of
Mr. and Mrs. M. M. Beal, of this city.
His education was secured In the
Plattsmouth schools and also at Peru,
where he was a student for several
terms. In his school life and later on
graduating from the high school. Mr.
Beal was very active In the athletic
events of the city, having been a
member of the high school and Ger
man turner basketball teams and also
for several years a member of the
Plattsmouth Red Sox baseball team.
Mr. Beal was appointed as deputy
clerk of the district court in 191 by
James M. Robertson and served in
that capacity until the entry of the
United States into the World War,
when he laid aside his office to enter
the naval service of his country and
served until the close of the great
conflict. On returning home from the
war, Mr. Beal was engaged as a
switchman with the Burlington in
the local yards here and while so
engaged was the victim of a very
severe accident that resulted in me
amputation of one of the lower limbs
and from the effects of which Mr.
Beal never entirely recovered. On
June 23, 1922, Mr. Beal was married
to Miss Golda Noble, daughter of Mr.
Mrs. A. R. Noble of this city.
