    SAD DEATH OF YOUNG BOY

    Lawrence Journey Killed in Accident Saturday.

    Lawrence Journey, son of Mr. John W. Journey, who was killed in an accident Saturday afternoon, was buried in the Jacksonville Cemetery yesterday afternoon.
    Young Journey was employed in a planing mill, running a moulder. In some manner, a piece of molding was broken and hurled back toward him. The missile struck him in the left side of his abdomen going entirely through his body. He lived only a few minutes.
    Journey was about sixteen years old, a brother of Mr. Ed Journey of this city, and a nephew of Circuit Clerk I.E. Watson.
