LOSES HIS SIGHT

the great war, and Miss Joan M. Lay

Mere married here recently. Captain
Barnett has never seen his bride;
he is blind, having given his vision on
the western front.
Captain Barnett met Miss Layton
at a function in England, after he had
been invalided home. After the wed
ding the bride and groom left by auto
mobile for a leisurely tour of Canada,
where the groom, despite his physical
handicap, successfully manages his
own wheat ranch.
Although this is a free country it
is not a bad idea not to be too inde

SETTLE ESTATE OF
INTERIOR MAN WHO
WAS REPORTED DEAD
The estate of Harry Monroe is be
ing administered without his consent.
Tom Aitken, partnet of Monroe re
ceived a telegram while on his last
trip to Fairbanks, seating that Men
loe had committed suicide in San
Francisco, and in the wire the re
quest was made that Aitken act as
administrator. Mr. Aitken went
through the necessary formality and,
through the press, began the closing
of the estate.
Now' a letter has been received
from a well known Fairbanksan in
San Francisco, who wqs a personal
friend of Harry Monroe, that he had
been called to identify the remains.
He found that it was not the Monroe
in question, as the suicide was a tall
man with a heavy black mustache and
bore no resemblance to Aitken’s part
ner, although correspondence was
found on the body intimating that the
man had at one time been a resident
of Fairbanks.
The waiter of the letter just receiv
ed had been called upon by a friend
of Monroe to make the identification
and arrangements for the burial, as
the latter was ill and could not at
tend to the matter. It is thought that
the wire to Aitken was sent by him
immediately after he had been noti
fied of the suicide, and that he has
not since been able to get in commu
nication wdth Aitken.
Tn the meantime the matter of the
closing of the estate will rest, until
such time as Harry Monroe $nay be
heard from and his wishes in the mat
ter be made known.—Fairbanks News

If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or more, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we will
ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make us
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper.
