Mrs. Polly Stiles of near Seligman, died Sunday, Aug 5, 1906, age 56 years, and the remains were laid to rest Monday. She was the grandmother of Lafayette Scoggins, who is confined in jail for killing his father, Mark Scoggins.

Fayette Scroggins Did So At Eureka Springs: The Eureka Springs, Ark., Flashlight, says Attorney Troy Pace of that place had secured a savings bank, and every time he deprived himself of a cigar, ice cream, or other luxuries, he would place the amount in his little savings bank, until he had between $30 or $40 saved up. One day last week, he had an occasion to look up his bank probably to make a deposit, when lo and behold the bank had disappeared and with it his savings. He searched the surroundings, but no trace could be had of his loss. He suspected Fate Scroggins, the son of the housekeeper at the Gables, and had him arrested. Fate declared that he knew nothing of the little bank; while Mr. Pace was questioning Fate Scroggins, he Fate, flared up, and said, "I'm getting mighty tired of people hounding me around. I'm the feller that killed pap." Attorney Pace said to Scroggins: "Well, old top, I didn't know that or I'd have passed you without a word." Fate Scroggins our readers, will remember, was arrested for killing his father Mark Scroggins near Seligman, last year, and was released from custody, because no indictment was filed against him. The evidence against Fate for taking the saving bank, was not sufficient to hold him; he was turned loose and told to come back at a certain date for trial but "skidoled" the Flashlight says and when last heard from was making tracks for Missouri.
