Murray May Enter Creditors’ Agreement in Carolina Mills Case. Horace Vose, known from ocean to ocean as the Turkey King, died sud- denly Saturday morning seated in a chair at his home in Railroad avenue, Westerly, in the seventy-fourth year of his age. He was the son of Charles B. and Mary J. Thompson Vose and Wwas born May 12, 1840, on Vose hill, now known as Quarry hill, in the vil- lage of Westerly, and has been a life- long resident. Mr, Vose is survived by his wife, Mrs, Susie Chesebro Vose, & daughter, Mabel Vose, widow of Otis Chapman, Jr.,, and a son, Charles Vose, also by a brother Oscar Vose. Hé had been sick for several weeks with a weakness of the heart, being confined to his home with the sickness with the exception of one day, a week ago last Friday, when he went out con- trary to the advice of his attending physiclan. He showed signs of im- provement, until the sudden turn came on Baturday which resulted fatally, In early life he became interested in turkey raising, which he later aban- doned and engaged in the sale of tur- keys on a large scale, shippizg tons of turkeys from Westerly each Thanks- giving and Christmag season. Owing to the scarcity of turkeys in this sec- zion this business hecame greatly re- duced and the shipments for the past ten years have been comparatively Bver since the first term of Clysses 8. Grant as president of the United States down to the present time 3Mr. Vose has presented the president with the best turkey obtainable for the Thanksgiving feast and this act has brought Mr, Vose wide prominence. Many vears ago Mr. Vose engaged in the ice business in Westerly at wholesale and retall, disposing of the pamse at a profit. He conducted a liv- m stable for a time in Vincent land, er enlarging the business into an capacity for a hundred or more horses, Mr. Vose going west and ‘purchasi horses in large numbers. Of yecg he has devoted most of his to farming as his ambition was to keep :)‘!!l;y and lead an acttve and useful Mr. Vose was noted for his honesty and shrewdness.

He was big-hearted, did much real charitable work and believed in honest methods. In Westerly where he was best known, his word was his bond. Mrs. Vose and two children survive him. Never was_the moral and financial condition of St, Michael’s parish in as good condition’ as at present, due to the efforts of Rev. Dr. John Neéale, rec- tor of St. Michael's church, and the united support of the parishioners. The church_is absolutely free from debt, The parish is composed wholly of working people who cheerfully contri- bute thqir mite to lighten the parish burden. Dr, Neale has been rector of St. Michael's only two and a half years, and during that time over $7,000 has been expended in church and cem- etery improvements and in addition the mortgage of $8,000 on the church property, held by the Washington Trust company, has been paid. The | parishioners had the pleasure of see- ing the mortgage burned after the high mass Sunday. Dr. Neale congratulated the congre- gation upon the work accomplished, giving all credit to the good people of the parish for the clearance of the church debt and for their general aid in the work of the parish. He was pleased with the result and with the unity, the lovalty and the true Chris- tian spirit that prevailed in St. Mich- ael's parish. Thieves seem to have a mark with the C. W. Willard hardware stora in Westerly, as “there have been more Tobberies at that store than any other in town. In some instances when the thieves have been detected the store management has pleaded leniency, ow- ing to the youthfulness of the culprits or for their family conditions. But if the‘fe!low who took the strong box from the safe a few weeks ago is ever captured he will be shown no mercy. The latest theft in the store took place Friday noon and if that chap is taken into custody he, too, is liable to get the limit of punishment. The leniency season has passed in the Willard store, Friday afternoon, while the clerks in the big store were engaged in dif- ferent’ sections, some ome abstracted from a show case near the store en- trance three magazine revolvers of a total value of about $4§. As the boxes that_contained the revolvers were left in the show case the theft was soon discovered. Suspicion points to a well dressed stranger, who was seen stand- ing near the show case, evidently wait- ing for the service of one of the clerks. ‘When a clerk was free to wait on the stranger he had disappeared and soon afterward the revolvers were missed. The case was reported immediately to the police to whom description of the er was given and a futile search of the town made for him, Rev. George W. Rigler, D. D., forme: wtto" of the First Baptist church,| esterly, now president of Hartshorn Memorial college, Richmond, Va., was given a birthday surprise last Monday evening, A party consisting of Rev.
