JESS JETER DIED FROM KICK OF A MULE

Saturday afternoon while Jess Jeter was working in his field, he was 
kicked in the side by a mule, and was found some time later in a 
critical condition and unable to get up, by a young man who happened 
to pass that way.  He immediately put Mr. Jeter in his wagon and 
brought him home, and every thing possible was done to save him, but 
to no avail, he passed away Tuesday morning at 3:30.

Mr. Jeter had lived in Broken Bow a number of years, and his many 
friends here regretted to learn of his sudden death.  He is survived 
by a wife and four children, to whom the sincere sympathy of the 
entire community is extended in this, their hour of sorrow.

Interment was made in the old cemetery Tuesday afternoon at 3:00, 
Rev. Albert A. Puckett, pastor of the First Methodist church, 
conducting the services.
