      ACCIDENT WAS FATAL TO CHARLES B. ELDER
      INJURIES SUSTAINED WHEN HORSE FELL ON HIM
      SUNDAY MORNING AT F. F. DAVIS' FARM

      "Charles B. Elder died last night between 9 and 10 o'clock from injuries received when a horse fell on him Sunday morning at the farm of Felix Davis, three miles west of Columbia. A rupture followed the accident. An operation was performed in the hope of saving the young man's life, but the efforts of the surgeons were futile. Interment will take place tomorrow at 11 o'clock at the Midway Methodist church."

      "Deceased was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Thos D. Elder and was only 17 years of age. He was a young man of excellent habits, industrious, considerate of everyone, and possessed of an unusually happy and sunny disposition. No young man in the neighborhood west of Columbia was more highly thought of, or was more universally esteemed for manly and sterling qualities. His untimely passing is deeply deplored by all who knew this fine young man."
