The last will and testament of Anna A. Busch was filed for probate in the county clerk's office today. The instrument was drawn up on September 27, 1906, and was witnessed by Isaac Carter and Clarine Morrison. She asks that not exceeding $100 be spent for a monument at her grave and that of her husband. She gives to her son, John H. Gathman, ten dollars, and to her younger son, C. Henry Gathman, all indebtedness due her, which consisted of a note for six hundred dollars secured by a motrgage[sic] on property. All the residue she gives to her husband during his life time and asks that at his death it be given to her son, C. Henry Gathman. She names her husband as executor.

William Bush, whose arrest with the young men who were passing counterfeit money, was mentioned Friday, suffered the penalty of being caught in bad company, like the geese in the fable. He was allowed to go free with nothing worse against him than a small fine for carrying concealed weapons, and returned home rejoicing, glad he was alive. This experience will doubtless prove a warning to him in future to beware of wicked companions.
