Tooey. ] It appears from reports that he was driving on an old road with a load of cobs , Sunday when he drove into a hole that upset the wagon , with himself under neath and the pring seat across his neck. The body was frozen stiff and it is probable he never arroused from the injury - jury received , which was not necessarily fatal. A bad cut on the nose and upper lip were sustained - tained and a few minor brusies about the face. Being held in that position if not killed by the ! fall he would have frozen. Mrs. Varner , his wife was visiting with her parents through holidays a few miles north of town where he ate his Christmas dinner. As he intended to tale a load of hogs to Sargent Saturday his wife remained - mained at her father's and he was. to go after her either Sunday or Monday. Returning fr m Sar- gent Saturd ) : night he filled his wagon with cobs to tale to his father-in law and started Sunday to go after his wife. He went by the way of A. B , Christman's where he ate dinner. This was was the last seen of him alive. When hedid not reach the Tooley home Monday the wife and family became uneasy and sent lover to his home to see if there was any thing wrong. The de- ceased's brother who had been left in charge of the stock ould not explain the situation and a seardl was instituted. When the body was fOUl\d Tuesday n e team was hitched to the wagon , and held fast by the lines being , caught under the wagon. The scene was visited by the sheriff , and county attorney but i.t . vas deemed tha.t an inquest was un- necessary. The funeral services will be held in the M. E. church . . this afternoon.
