A LUCKY SPILL
From Saturday's Daily
Jim Magee, of the postoffice force,
is thanking his lucky stars that a
near auto accident in which he fig
ured terminated without injury to
himself or the other occupants of his
new Essex coach. Accompanied by
his wife and two little children, and
Mr. and Mrs. B. L. Kirkham, Jim
was driving home last Thursday night
over the old Whitewood-St. Onge
road. It had been raining a little
during the evening, making the dirt
road slippery in places, and in mak
ing a sharp turn Jim applied the
brakes and slowed down the car.
This caused the wheels to skid and
the car left the road and turned over
on its sides, piling up the occupants
in a heap. Fortunately the car had
almost stopped when the accident oc
curred and no one was injured in
any way. A broken windshield was
the only damage to the car, but
Magee and Kirkham had to "hoof it"
six miles to get help to right the car.
and the party reached home at about
the time Old Sol was peeping his head
up in the eastern horizon. Belle

E. A. KIRKPATRIGK
OLD RESIDENT OF
NEHAWKA COMMUNITY
Veteran of the Civil War Has Lived
in Present Community for More
Than Average lifetime.
E. A. Kirkpatrick is the oldest
settler of this community. He came
to Nehawka seventy years ago last
Sunday with his parents from Iowa
when he was eleven years of age.
He has made bis home here ever
since and has noted the many chang
es which have taken place here since
that time.
The Kirkpatrick family were the
first residents of this village. They
built their home on the banks of the
Weeping Water creek, a short dist
ance south of the present home of
F. P. Sheldon. Soon after locating
here, Mr. Kirkpatrick's father built
the first flour mill in the state. It
was built on the bank of the Weeping
Water, just south of their home. It
was operated by water power and
the machinery was brought here
from Iowa.
The closest village to this place at
that time was Rock Bluff, which is
on the bank of the Missouri river.

where groceries and other supplies
