An Untimely Departure Antrim Jay Barnes, oldest son of Hiram J. and Arlinda Kiser Barnes, was born at the home eight miles east of Delphos, March 15, 1903, and died at the same place July 4, 1914; aged 11 years, 3 months and 19 days.

His death was due to a fractured skull, caused by his being thrown from a horse.

He leaves to mourn his untimely death his father and mother, two sisters, Matilda Grace and Necie Wilma; and three brothers, Loren Hiram, Ola Warren, and Charles Edwin. He leaves a host of other relatives and friends whose hearts are sad because of his early death.

July 3, 1914 Antrim Barnes, son of Hiram Barnes who lives in the country, was severely hurt Wednesday evening by being thrown from a young horse that he was riding in the pasture. His injury consists chiefly in a blow on the side of his head behind the ear, and it is not known just how serious it will prove to be. The boy was carrying a can of oats for the purpose of catching another horse and it is thought that the one he was riding became frightened in some way at the can and jumped sideways throwing the lad to the ground.
