Mangum, Okla.,
Feb. 26th, 1904.
Editor Mangum Star.
Dear Sir:—I want to announce
the death of my father, (Mr. E. P.
Boyett), who departed this life at
his home in Olustee, O. T., Tues-
day, 23rd inst. He fell and Injur-
ed his right side last summer while
setting fish hooks near his home on
Turkey creek. He has complained
with his side ever since, but always
in a very mild way and no one ever
thought it was as serious as it real-
ly was. He complained a little
more than usual the last month or
so but continued to work. He
worked Monday, the 22nd, hauling
lumber and it is believed that his
side was abcessing all the while and
lifting the lumber tended to break
the abscess which caused his sud
den death. He came home Monday
night and greeted his family as
usual and seemed as well as usual.
In the night he seemed to be suffer-
ing, and at early dawn, he became
unconscious, and he grew worse
very rapidly, begged them to re-
lieve his side in his unconscious
state until 11:15 o'clock Tuesday
morning when God called his spirit
home. He became a member of the
Church when he was young man
and has been very strong in faith
evei since. Although the last few
years he did not make many pre-
tentions toward religion, he talk-
ed to his family very much about
it. He has always been a loving
husband and an affectionate father,
and a cheerful companion. He was
40 years, 10 months and 23 days of
age, has been married 21 years.
He leaves a wife and seven children
besides a host of friends to mourn
his death. I want to thank the
many friends who came and tried
to comfort us in our deepest despair
and agony, and may God reward
them as He alone can do.

A Political Sherlock Holmes.
An ex-governor of Massachu-
setts who had the remarkable tal-
ent of always knowing everybody,
especially voters, explained at a
recent cattle show how he did it.
An old farmer who had once driv-
en him across the country came up
i;o shake hands and was immedi-
ately recognized. "Ah," said the
governor, "how d'you do? Hows
Jack' (Jack was the farmer's
son). "Oh, he's well," sa.'d the
delighted old man. His interest
was still further increased when
the governor said: "And how's
the old white horse?" When the
old man had passed on a friend
said to the governor: "Did you
really remember about that white
horse?" "No," he said, "I saw
white hairs on his coat and
chanced it."
Vindioating the Red Head*.
Professor Karl Pearson, the
English anthropologist, is trying to
relieve redheaded people from the
stigma which he says has attached
to them from the remotest antiq-
uity. To this end he is compiling
a sort of census, asking school-
masters. for instance, for the rec-
ords of their redheaded pupils. He
believes that Aristotle drew on his
imagination when he wrote: "He
that has red hair is proud, envious
and deceitful."
