BOLES, Ben J. - Ben J. Boles died Sunday morning after a long struggle with that dread disease, consumption. This makes eight deaths that have occurred in that family within the past five years and they have all died with the same disease. Ben was 17 years old, just old enough to begin to appreciate life, when he was summoned to "that undiscovered country." His relatives have the sincere sympathy of the community.
