BENDERSVILLE: On last Wednesday afternoon B. B. Hardy went to the corn field, a short distance from his home, for the purpose of busking corn, and after husking quite a few ears he suddenly fell over unconscious and lay there from 2 p.m. until 5 p.m., when the family became uneasy about his long absence, began to search. When found his body was partially frozen. He was hastily taken home, wherall effects to bring him to consciousness proved unyielding and he died the following morning.
