Web. City, Mo., May 4. – Funeral services for A.L.

The Rev. John G. Hilton, pastor of the Presbyterian church, will be in charge. Burial will be in Ozark Memorial park at Joplin. Coroner W. G. Hogan of Neck City said today that no inquest will be held. The truck was driven by C.D. Bell of Joplin. In his report of the accident to police here, Bell said he was traveling east on Broadway and Edwards, who was walking north on Liberty street, started to cross the street in front of the truck and apparently did not see it. According to Bell, Edwards jumped out of the way of the truck and then, apparently became confused, jumped again into the path of the approaching Car. Edwards came here ten years ago from Bunker Hill, Kan., where he and Mrs. Edwards had taught school for several years. Surviving are his widow, Mrs. Eva M. Edwards, and a daughter, Mrs. Ethel Robbins of Shenandoah, Ia.
