VERNON JONES BURIED
A shock comes to the people of Ord by the arrival of the body of Vernon Jones from Chicago last night.
His mother, Mrs. Nellie Stanton Girton, arrived in the city Tuesday evening bringing to her people the news that her son Vernon was dead and that his body would be sent to Ord for burial. But till the body came the fact of the young man's death was not generally known in Ord.
Vernon was the brilliant son of Dr. and Mrs. I. D. Jones. He was born in Valley count 23 years ago last May and lived here for a number of years till his people moved to Murdock, Nebraska.
For several months he has been employed in a printing office in Chicago. A telegram came to his mother at Wayne, where she resides, simply saying that the young man died at his hotel in Chicago and asking her instructions as to the disposition of the body. She wired to have the body sent to Ord, and then she came on immediately. At the time of her departure no particulars of the said affair were received and none have come here yet.
The funeral was held from the home of E. Stanton in Ord this forenoon, Dr. Chamberlain officiated.
