Avon-Keene – This community was shocked last Wednesday by the sudden death of
Bert Rose, a young and prosperous farmer of this township.  He was drawing
gravel on the dugway hill near Saranac and being somewhat cold from riding said
that he would shovel a while. He had not taken but a few shovels full when a
large chunk fell from the top and caught him throwing him against the wagons and
killing him instantly.  He leaves besides a wife and two children, a mother and
a host of friends.  The family have the sympathy of the entire community.  The
funeral was held at the Saranac M.E. church Friday at 1 o’clock, the K.O.T.M.
and the L.O.T.M. attending in a body, they being largely represented.

North Keene – A sad accident occurred last week Wednesday.  While Burt Rose was
hauling gravel, the cave gave away and about 10 tons of gravel fell, killing him
instantly.  He leaves an aged mother, a wife and three small children to mourn
his sad loss.
