RESIDES—BAILEY. — Ellis Resides, of
Snow Shoe, and Miss Flora May Bailey,
until there was a fall of rock and Ver-
recchia’s legs were caught and he was
thrown violently backwards on some
loose rock. While his legs were badly
crushed there were no other external
injuries; but he was injured internally,
which caused his death.
Deceased was thirty-three years old
and was born in Italy. Prior to coming
to this country about seven years ago he
‘spent fifteen years in France. He is sur-
vived by his wife and a fifteen months
old daughter. Also one brother, Polie

ten-o’clock on Saturday morning from the
., | Catholic church, burial being made in
the Catholic cemetery.
VoNADA—Benjamin Franklin Vonada,
*/| of Jacksonville, was found dead on Wed-
nesday morning near the old Hogan cider
press in the Jacksonville Narrows. He
was in Bellefonte on Tuesday and though
he recently had suffered one or more
slight strokes of paralysis, he was feel-
ing fairly good. He left Bellefonte: on
the 8.33 train in the evening and went to
Howard, intending to walk through the
Narrows to his brother’s home. The next
morning his dead body was found, and
the supposition is that another stroke
caused his death.
Deceased was a son of Samuel ‘and
Mary Orndorf Vonada and was born in
Marion township about sixty-five years
ago. He followed farming most of his
life. He is survived by his wife and three
sons, Clyde at home, and two living in
Los Angeles, Cal. He also leaves one
brother and two sisters, J. J. Vonada, of
Marion township, Mrs. Emma Shaffer
and Mrs. Henry Tibbens, of Bellefonte.

tomorrow morning, burial to be made at
GATES.—John H. Gates, chief of police
of Medina, Ohio, was shot and instantly |
killed some time Monday night in: the '
public square of the town, his body being '
found on Tuesday morning. A gaping
wound in his head told the manner of
his death. Not far from the body two
empty shot shells were found. A mar-
shall of the same town is missing and
suspicion points to him as the murderer. |’
The murdered man was a son of Solo- '
mon and Elizabeth Gates and was born
at Gatesburg, this county, about sixty |
years ago. Most of his life was spent in |
this county but about twelve years:
ago he moved to Medina. He was a
member . the Lutheran church, !
Knights of Rs and Odd Fellows.
A few months ago he captured a young
man from Julian who secured: money
and clothing i in Tyrone on bogus checks. |
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Cath-
arine . Elder - Gates,
children: David, William, Mary,-and Effie,
all of Medina. He also leaves one
brother and a sister, Isaac Gatesand Mrs. |
Henry Harpster, both of near Tyrone.
