Jeffs, of Clay Center, died suddenly of a heart attack Saturday night at about ten o'clock while riding in his automobile 1/4 mile east of the Ed Wise farm, four miles southwest of Edgar. He in company with three girls, Cecile and Dorcas Kinnison, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Kinnison and Bernice Judy, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cal Judy, all of Angus, were driving to Oak, Nebraska, and were singing and apparently as happy as could be when Mr. Jeffs slumped over on the steering wheel, the car running into the ditch with the result that the windshield was broken. No one was injured. The girls rushed to the Ed Wise home, advising him that they had a sick man in a car on the road and immediately a telephone call was sent for Dr. Thomas who could not be located and Dr. Harbaugh arrived on the scene a short time after to find Mr. Jeffs had passed away. Sheriff Peters of Nuckolls County was called who advised taking the body to the undertaking parlor and Mr. Wise brought the body to J. M. McGhie's parlor at Edgar. Fred Jeffs of Clay Center, father of the deceased and Sheriff Harr of Clay Center arrived later in the evening. No inquest was advised. ----- Beryl Dwayne Jeffs was born November 2, 1909 at Fairfield, Nebraska. He attended school there until he finished the grades, after which he entered the Edgar High School and graduated with the class of 1926-27, and after some time he took work at the Peru State Normal and since that time has lived with his father at Clay Center, but since early spring had lived with his sister in Omaha. Beryl was always interested in athletics and was captain of the Edgar High School football team of 1926-27. during his high school work he developed an athletic heart, which kept him out of athletics for one year, but he never lost his interest in the game. The community was shocked when the word came out that Beryl was dead. He died Saturday, September 20, being 20 years, 10 months and 18 days of age. On February 27, 1927, Beryl confessed his faith in Christ and was baptized and was a member of the Church of Christ of Edgar and a member of the Gleaners or the young people's Bible class and attended when he was in Edgar. Mrs. Cline was his teacher and he occasionally attended the Christian Endeavor meetings of the church, He was a big hearted boy and everyone seems to have a good word for Beryl. Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 in the Church of Christ in Edgar of which he was a member, conducted by the pastor, who spoke words of comfort to a large concourse of friends and relatives who had gathered to pay a tribute of respect to a friend, a classmate and a relative from the words of Isaiah 61:1, "He has sent Me to bind up the broken hearted". The music was furnished by a quintette with Mrs. Messler at the piano. He leaves to mourn his untimely and sudden death, a loving father and stepmother, his mother having died February 12, 1926; one brother Arland, of Clay Center; two sisters, Mrs. Lillian Burge of Omaha, Nebr., and Mrs. Fannie Mileger of Edgar; four nieces, one nephew, one uncle and two aunts, Mrs. Fannie Fickus of Fairfield and Mrs. Lillian Bowersox of Reserve, Kan.; besides many relatives and friends. May the bereaved ones have strength for this sad experience in life are the wishes of the writer and many friends. Interment was made in the Edgar Cemetery. The pallbearers were six young men. J. J.
