FUNERAL NOTES

C. M. BARNES, an account of whose death will be found in another column, was
one of the oldest residents of Monroe county, coming here in 1818. He was 79
years of age and leaves two children. The funeral will probably be held
to-morrow afternoon.

KILLED BY THE SHAFT

C. M. BARNS, who with his son runs the grist mill at Allens creek, two miles
east of Brighton, was yesterday morning killed while at work on the third
story of his mill, by getting caught in the shafting, which bore him around a
pulley for some time. He was taken to his home and Dr. J. P. WHEELER, of
Brighton, did all that could be done, but he died at 3 o'clock. He was 74
years of age. Coroner SHARPE heard the facts in the case and deemed an
inquest unnecessary.
