SUMMUM — This village received a shock Wednesday morning in the sudden passing of C. O. Shawgo. He lived his life here except for serving in the armed forces in World War One. He will be greatly missed. He was a person so punctual in his habits that you could almost set your time piece by his comings and goings about his daily work.
