he tied about his neck. The verdict
of Justice Raleign Abernathy was
that he came to his death by strangu-
lation.
Italians in Dallas, Mr. and Mrs.
Mike DeLuke were notified of the
man’s death, and they gave instruc-

pending further advices.
His Italian friends were very
philosophical, in speaking of the mat-
ter of how Italians regard each
other. They said that in Italy no-
body was anybody, anymore than any
other person, but when two Ital-
ians were in this country, far
from the homeland, that there is a
tie that binds which does not come
of blood kinship, but from the fact
that they are both from sunny Italy.
The Italian speaking said itr- would
be the same with anyone from this
country and a fellow countryman,
were either of them to get into
trouble in Italy—and that is correct.

the replica of Fort Inglish, which
stands on the spot where the origin-
al is said to have rested, on East
Ninth street.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Dillard
and some of the mothers took their
cars, loaded them with the third
graders and fared forth to see the
fort. The children were delighted
with it, and did they climb up and
down the rustic stairway.
The upstairs of this building—the
room, that is— is 24x24 feet, while
the lower room is 17x17 feet. The
building is made of pine logs that
came from East Texas, near Aving-

diameter at the big end, and 10 1-2
inches at the little end.

the children went to the Lipscomb
homestead, where they saw the well
that Bailey Inglish dug. It is now
over 100 years old and is still doing
duty as a well.
Then the children said they want-
ed to see where Bailey Inglish
was buried, so they went to the
Inglish cemetery and there they saw
the grave and the tombstone over
the pioneer’s last resting place
—they will not forget this trip soon.
