Fatal: A contradiction of the old wheeze about boys hating school came in a tragic way Thursday. Standing in front of their home at 8513 N. Main St., little Kenneth Beck was waiting with his mother, Mrs. Thearen Beck, for the Randolph tp. school bus. When the seven-year-old lad saw the bus approaching, he started to dash across N. Main (Covington Pike) to meet it. He darted into the path of an auto driven by auto dealer John V. Walker—with both his mother and Walker powerless to prevent the tragedy. The boy's death the city-county toll to 58. It was 73 this time last year. | Beck, Kenneth Walter (I258)

FEUD OF COLVINS PROVES FATAL
Self Defense Claimed
Charles Colvin, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jasper Colvin, was shot and probably fatally wounded Saturday evening by Ed. Colvin
The mother of young Colvin, who was summoned to his side shortly after the shooting and had attended him Sunday and Sunday night, was found dead in her bed Monday morning, presumably from heart disease, the fatal attack doubtless superinduced by the excitement resulting from the tragedy.
(see article for more)
The remains of Mrs. Jasper Colvin were removed to the residence of her son, Richard, on South East street. Arrangements for the funeral have not yet been announced. | Moore, Charlotte (I5281)

Friday eve July 14/44
My dear Harry & Helen,
—Your good letter arrived yesterday A.M. I thought I would get a letter off to you yesterday P.M. but did not get to it. Mother said that I would have to do the writing if you get a letter for she is sewing on your dress every chance she has. She said it as she promised Jon she would bake a cake & send him for his birthday & she just thought since supper that his birthday is next Monday, so she mixed up a cake & got it in the oven before she washed the dishes. She says that she does not know how good it will be but it will be a cake. She just said that you left a bottle of milk. She said that she will send the bottle when she sends the dress. Leota & children went out to her folks yesterday A.M. Howard came for them. Viva told me a few minutes ago that they are to be out there Sunday & if any mail comes for her that they will take it out. They were down there to supper Tuesday evening. Ruby was there too. We took Nora F. to Dayton Tuesday A.M. & got the tooth out. I got them their teeth filled & cleaned on Monday. They are to come in the first of the week. I have the dentures about done. I will fit them in & she says that they will go over to C & D's for 2 days & by that time I can tell if they need some trimming or grinding.
—John Pramer & Florence Haines are to be married tomorrow. He is home on a furlough till the 22d. Mrs. P. was in the office this afternoon. She doesn't like it so well. We have had 3 letters from Bob since Sunday. One went to Mt. Airy & back. He has been to church the last two Sundays. He says the services there at the rifle range are fine. He says "the chaplain is swell & he preaches the things you folks have taught me for 18 years." He said that the service last Sunday was a communion service. He says that he was shocked when he read about LeRoy Scherry's death in the Gazette. He said that he wanted us to include him when we expressed our sympathy to Mr & Mrs Scherry. He said he could not forget how nice Mr. Scherry was to him before he left. He says in his last letter that he has finally run on to someone from Xenia. His name is Shumaker and he worked for Chenoweth. His wife lives on S. Detroit. Bob said that she was going down there next Sunday. Mother went up to see his wife yesterday morning and she found out that she had started the day before. She may be able to see her when she returns. I bought Bob another money belt yesterday & we are going to send it to him. He had his money belt & money stolen. In the letter he wrote a week ago he says that it will be 3 or 4 weeks before he will get a furlough and get home. I do hope that he gets a furlough & gets home. Arthur Miller at the P. Office told me this A.M. that his boy did not get a furlough after he got through his boat training down there. Hattie Erwin told me Monday that Jno. Loveless is in the East ready to be sent out & that Richard in England is to be married to an English girl. Russell Metty has already married an English girl. We were so glad that you got home for the week. We sure enjoyed having you with us and we will be looking for you again next month. Mary E. came home in the night last night. She says that she will be in again Sat. night. We have seen so little of her since we returned home. I saw her on the way home to lunch as she was going into town. Mother just now showed me how nicely she has the cake packed in a box. I hope it carries OK.
God bless you all,
Much love to all
