JAMES E. GREEN DIED HERE TUESDAY EVENING IN HOSPITAL.

Uncle Jimmie Green, as he was known to Mexico people is survived by seven children. James E. Green, 91 years old, and known in Mexico as "Uncle Jimmie Green" died at 11 o'clock at the Audrain Hospital Tuesday night, September 25, 1923. His death was the result of a fall from the porch of his daughter Ida Watts, N. Clark, and occurred Monday afternoon.
It was thought at first that he had only fractured his hip and that the injury was not so serious, but an examination at the hospital revealed the hip was broken. He suffered a great deal with the injury until his death Tuesday night.
Mr. Green was born Nov. 25, 1831 in Kentucky. When a very young man he came to Missouri and bought the farm, 4 miles south of Mexico which he still owned at the time of his death and where he had made his home until he came to live with his daughter, Mrs. Ida Watts, several years ago.
His wife (Sarah F. Byrns Green) died a number of years ago (Nov. 29, 1907) and he is survived by seven children:
Mrs. Ida Watts, Mexico; Mrs. Lyle (Emma W.) Brown, Columbia;
Mrs. John (Sallie C.) Atkins, Vandalia; George W. Green, Mexico; James H. Green, Spokane, WA; Frank Green, Kansas; and Hampton Green, Auxvasse.
It is thought that all the children will be here for the funeral with the exception of James Green of Spokane.
Uncle Jimmie was a member of Union Chapel Church, a Presbyterian church near his farm. The funeral will be held Tuesday morning but further arrangements have not be made.
