Three weeks ago last Sunday Mr. Ramsey, while driving in his barnyard, his horse became frightened and started suddenly, throwing him out of the buggy, injuring him quite seriously and producing a high fever, and finally turned into typhoid fever, which was the cause of his death. There is no man in this township who will be more missed than the deceased, and who now has so many friends mourning his sudden departure. Funeral services will be held at the residence of the deceased tomorrow forenoon at 10 o’clock, Rev. M. M. Callen officiating.
