Harry A. Everett, age 66, veretan livestock dealer and for thirty-five years in the horse and mule trading business in Palestine, was found dead early Sunday morning, December 18, 1932. Death was due to a heart attack according to a coroner's inquest.

Hartman Ambrose Everett was the son of John and Margaret St.Clair Everett. He was born March 16, 1866 in Danville, Pennsylvania. When but a small boy he came with his parents to Charlton, Iowa and grew to manhood there. About 1910 Mr. Everett moved to Palestine where he bought and sold mules and horses. He was always honest and upright in his dealings and made friends of all whom he came in contact. He possessed a jovial disposition and had a pleasant word for everyone. He took a great delight in lending a helping hand to anyone in need.
He married Lizzie Ellen Troxel of Derby, Iowa, daughter of J.M. Troxel of Charlton on July 26, 1898. She preceded him in death on January 31, 1922.
