In the highest spirits and best of good hummer toi. S. 11. Boyd on Turn- day departed for Ants crock in Stone county on a thing expedition and at " veloc's yesterday his badly decom- peroni retains were brought to this city in a wagon." He died almost" eu- urely out of civilization and yet within 50 miles of Springfield .. It was. impos sible to soopre & codila where's bo died and he was brought back to his bome stretched on a flabing cot which was bastily boaed up with planks. ..
Col. Boyd had been in bad health fur
the past three years but he bad stend-1 uly improved for the last eight months to such an extent that he thought he could safely take a trip to Stone county sud fish and enjoy the wild scenery of the Ozarks which was his favorite pas- time. . After' al! he was the creature of circumstance and the disease be Gnf- fered from so long and which hedreaded Was a no way responsible for bin deuth and be might have met with the same fate even if he bad remained at his home.
Col. Boyd was accompanied on . his trip by D. M. Coleman, the attorney. : who has gone on numerous excursions of the kind with the deceased, and Jamie Delaney, Col. Boyd's grandson. After their arrival st Ants creek they went into camp and all were enjoying themselves to the greatest extent. Col. Boyd was well known in that part of the country having been to Stone connty frequently, not only ase sports- man but as a lawyer sud s politician. llis frseude trere joking him .bont political matters and one engaged Col. Boyd to go on the stump for him in case he should run for constable in Stone county, which be gracefully promised to do and acade what he called a sample speech right there.

A runner was sent Into this elty to notify Thomas J. Dy- laney. Col. "Boyd's'-son-in-law. ' Mr. Delaney at once went out to find Dr. William Reinbott, the family , physi- cian, but as he was out of the city he took Dr. S. A. Johnson and departed In all haste for Stone county.
When Dr. Johnson arrived he found Col. Boyd beyond all hope and be ad- vised that Mrs. Delaney and Mrs. Boyå be ment for at once. A runder was sent with a telegram to Marion- ville. , the nearest telegraph station. with a dispatch to that effert and the ladies prepared to start. They left! Friday night, six hours after Col. Boyd had breathed hla last' and met the Farts returning to Springfield with the body.
Dr. Johnson found Col. Bord com- portely collapsed and could do nothing but relieve him from mln suffering which. war interse. A country physician wasalready on the scene doing everything in his power for the dring man. At . ... }ruins evening Col.

The body was taken to the family residence on Washington avenue. Elr l'axson, the nodertaker, and 1). Will- iam Rienbeff arrived shortly after- wars. Dr. Reinhoff made a just mor. tem examination and found tha ! death had resulted from nenie general peri- tonitis, brought on by mente aprenici-
ris. The examination developed the fact that a perforation had taken place at the bang of the vermiform process. whereby some of the contents of the bowels had been discharged into the abdominal cavity. The Inflammation leading to the perforation was caused by some substance lodging in the be- ginnlog of the process near tbo blind intestine.
The news of the death soon spread all over the city and expressions of morrow were universal. Friends at once began calling at the residence to expresa sympat'ıy.
The funeral services will take place at the realdence at 4 o'clock this after- nood, and the body will be lald at rest in Hazlewood cemetery.
The Bar association will hold meeting at the courthouse to-day at : o'clock and make arrangements to attend the funeral.
The following was imued last night: "The comrades of .Capt. John Mathews post.
