negotiate the curve. The car flipped, sending it into the ditch.
Three hunting accidents reported in Ringgold County in two days, Saturday - Sunday, Oct. 28-29, kept Ringgold
County sheriff's officers busy responding to emergency calls. It was thought the three were the most to happen
in many years. According to the Department of Natural Resources reports, the three involved personal injury, the
use of shot guns as hunters were stalking, attempting to bag pheasants and each happened at a different location.
In each case the victim and the shooter were in the same hunting party grouping. The victims were brought to the Ringgold
County Hospital in Mount Ayr for examination. The first two were treated and released.
When the body of Jesse James was reburied in the Kearney, MO cemetery recently, there was a Ringgold county connection.
This time James is resting in a burial vault made by Taylor Fiberglass in Diagonal. The vault is an orange-gold colored
fiberglass vault, to be exact, with the name plate of Jesse James 1847-1882 on the cover.
