William Hunt, an old and highly respected citizen living northwest of Tabor died Thursday night of last week from injuries received in a fall just a week previous. On the day of the accident, he had climbed into a tree to hive a swarm of bees and in some manner fell to the ground, a distance of some 20 feet, fracturing two ribs and injuring himself internally. His injuries, owing to his advanced age, 63 years, proved more serious than at first anticipated, resulting in peritonitis. The funeral occurred Saturday at the house, and interment was made in the Tabor Cemetery.
