| 3101 | Inhalation, burns fatal A 48-year-old New Lebanon man died Sunday of severe burns and smoke inhalation, a spokeswoman for the Montgomery County coroner said yesterday. Charles Wiltrout, New Lebanon fire chief, theorized that Nicholas Cole Sr., 147 Swanson St., New Lebanon, died when he went into the attic of his one-story house to check problems with the electricity after he had seen smoke. “The attic is a crawl space and when he crawled in, he must have become disoriented,” Wiltrout said. Wiltrout said the cause of the fire is under investigation, but he believes it started from electrical problems cause by severe weather. He said the investigation has been held up because the Dayton Power & Light Co. has been too busy with storm-related repairs and restoring power to surrounding counties to turn the power off at the house.

| 3129 | James Clinton Phipps, son of William and Sarah Phipps, was born in Parke county, August 19, 1836. Departed this life April 1, 1915, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Rou Noyves, of Chanute, Kansas, where he had gone to visit, at the age of seventy-eight years, seven months and thirteen days. He was married to Sarah Jane Hybarger of Fountain county, December 12, 1861. To this union were born twelve children, six boys and six girls, nine of whom grew to manhood and womanhood, four of them having preceded him, also his companion on May 24, 1905. He leaves four sons and four daughters, twenty grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, a sister and two brothers to mourn his loss. During the Civil war he went to Indianapolis to enlist but was rejected because he was bodily disabled. Although he had made no outward pretense of religion, he was a great bible reader, and was honest in all his dealings, and obliging and kind-hearted neighbor. He was stricken with paralysis on March 29, and told his daughter at the very first of his sickness that he wouldn't get well. Death in any form is a bereavement but coming so unexpectedly, so utterly without warning is indeed a bereavement that may seem well right unbearable. After short funeral services at the home of his daughter in Chanute, the remains accompanied by his son, Alford, and daughter, Viola Ferguson were brought back to the home of his daughter, Mrs. John Tucker, near Mecca, Indiana, Saturday, and after remaining over night, he was taken to Lutheran, near Wallace, Fountain county, and after short services he was laid to rest by his companion.

| 3133 | JAMES WILLIAM "BILL" SIMPSON July 2, 1918 - Nov. 2, 2007 James William "Bill" Simpson, Jr., a former owner/publisher of The Wayne County Outlook and World War II veteran, died Friday, November 2, 2007. He was 89. In the U.S. Navy, Simpson was witness to some of the most important and decisive battles of World War II. As a newspaper owner, his career spanned the transition from hot metal type into the computer age. Born in Monticello, Ky. on July 2, 1918, he was the son of the late Elnora and J.W. (Jim) Simpson, Sr. and was a life-long resident of Monticello until moving to neighboring Somerset in 2005. He was a member of First Christian Church in Monticello. Simpson was raised in the newspaper business and worked as a newspaperman for nearly 50 years. His father had founded The Wayne County Outlook in 1904 and the family continued to manage the paper until it was sold in 1987. Simpson learned early in his life how to handset type and operate the presses at the newspaper office. In the late 1930s, while still a teenager, he was left in charge of the paper while his father was out of town. A traveling editor for Publisher's Auxiliary, a publication for the National Newspaper Association, chanced to stop by The Outlook for a visit. He was so impressed by the young man's command of newspaper production that he wrote a column for the publication noting the youngster's abilities. A 1938 graduate of Monticello High School, Simpson spent two years at the University of Kentucky before returning home. In 1942 he enlisted the U.S. Navy as part of the World War II effort. A signalman on the amphibious troop transport U.S.S. Thurston, Simpson saw action in North Africa, Sicily, Normandy, Iwo Jima and Okinawa. He reported in a letter to his mother that watching the raising of the U.S. flag over Iwo Jima's Mt. Suribachi was "one of the most thrilling sights I have ever seen." After the war, Simpson returned to work with his father. While he wrote some articles for the paper, he served mainly as a printer, Linotype operator and publisher. On October 4, 1951 he married Corydon, Ind. native Dolly Eileen Smith, then a nurse at VA Hospital in Louisville. Residing in Monticello, the couple had two sons-Stuart born in 1952; and Jim in 1953. Simpson took part in civic activities over the years and was proud of coaching Little League baseball teams. At the newspaper, he oversaw the transition in the late 1960s and early 1970s from hot metal type to cold type, the offset printing process. With the new type of printing, the paper began using computerized typesetting methods and was one of the first in Kentucky to fully incorporate desktop publishing into the production in the mid-1980s. After the family sold the paper in 1987, Simpson retired from the business. He remained very interested in Kentucky's newspapers and was an avid reader. His parents and a sister, Margaret, preceded him in death. His wife; two sons; a sister, Lytha Ann Underwood; and a grandson, Will Simpson, survive him. Funeral services were held Sunday, November 4, 2007 with the Hoyt G. Hickey and Son Funeral Home in charge of arrangements. The family requests that expressions of sympathy take the form of donations to the American Cancer Society and Hospice of Lake Cumberland. Lexington Herald-Leader, Lexington, Kentucky.

| 3149 | Jim Fox Again. Arrested By United States Officers and Charged With Raising a Treasury Note. Jim Fox is again in trouble. He has been arrested by the United State Secret Service agents at Beattyville on charges of raising a United States Treasury note. It is charged that he raised a dollar bill to ten dollars by cutting off a zero from a stamp of some sort and parting it on the dollar bill. It was a bungling job, and should not have deceived anybody. He went with the bill to Elihu Reynolds' distillery, in Perry county, and passed the bill on Reynolds' wife at night. He got $9.40 worth of whisky, and received sixty cents in change. The next morning Reynolds discovered the swindle. Fox was bound over in the Perry County Court in the sum of $1,900, and is now in jail. Fox's name is familiar from his connection with the French-Eversole feud. He was tried in the last term of the Federal Court at Frankfort, charged with killing a Deputy United States Marshal. The Courier-Journal, Louisville, Kentucky.
