Dever, ed- itor of the Western Enterprise of Rich Hill Friday night, cameas a blow to the citizens of the entire. county and especially to his brother news- papermen who held him in the deep- est affection.

The Rich Hill Review says: “Mr. Dever was born in Clark county, Ill., January 26, 1860. “After leaving college Mr. Dever drifted west and finally located at Augusta, Kansas, where he learned the printer’s trade. Then he returned to Illinois where he followed the profession .of teaching. In 1898 he answered the call of the press, which profession he followed until his death. For ten years he publish- ed the Hindsboro, (Ill.) News. *‘In 1908 he entered the newspaper business in Rich Hill as publisher of the Western Enterprise which he followed until his death. He practic- , |ally died “‘in the harness’’ as he had often expressed a wish to do. “Deceased was a-good christian man, and was a member ofthe First Presbyterian Church, of which~he has been one of the elders for the past five years. “He is survived by his father, Fran- cis C. Dever, Vernon County; his wife, Eva W. Dever, three children, Mrs. Evalena Dever Doane, W. Col- lins Dever and Ralph Dever; a sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Hatch, Nevada, Mo., and a brother, Lyman Dever of Kan- sas.”” Funeral services, conducted by the Rev. Guy S. Davis, were held at the Presbyterian church and interment made by the-M. W. A. in Green Lawn cemetery, Sunday. Last Call W. Z. Baker's Sale.
