Father Was Killed a few Wreeks Ago.

From Saturday's Daily. Word was received here this morning that Maylen Huntsinger had been found dead at his home on a farm near Mineral. The first report was that the same team had killed him that killed his father Henry Hunt-singer a few weeks ago but later this was found to be just a rumor. The report given by the family was that Mr. Huntsinger's sister found him dead in the garden early this morning.

He was lying on his face with his arm thrown up and his head resting upon it. It is supposed that heart disease was the immediate of his death as he was known to have had some trouble of this kind in the past. Mr. Huntsinger had gone into the garden with a team to harrow in some seed he had sown. He had just harrowed two rounds of the garden when his sister, Mrs.

Evans noticed the team standing still and went out to see what was the matter and found her brother lying on the ground and upon examination it was found that he was dead. This was about ten-thirty o'clock this forenoon. Mr. Huntsinger was 58 years of age and leaves three daughters and one son. His wife is dead and he lived with his mother Mrs.

Henry Huntsinger on the farm. They were making arrangements to move to Columbus in the near future. Mrs. Ray Hall a daughter lives here. The other children are Mabel Huntsinger, and Catherine Huntsinger who live in Oklahoma and Lee Huntsinger who lives at Houston, Texas.

Will Huntsinger who has charge of the Blake road work is a brother of the dead man. The two daughters who are stenographers, one at Nowatta and one at Tulsa, Oklahoma have been on their vacation in Noel, and Mabel had written that she would arrive this evening for a visit here with her parents on her return trip. Catherine was notified at once of her fathers death and she will also arrive tonight, he funeral arrangements will be made as soon as word can be received from Lee Huntsinger, the son, at Houston.
