but did not grow dangerously ill till Tuesday, when her symptoms became alarming, and after most intense suffering, death came to her
relief at 10 o'clock Thursday night.
She was a bright, jiretty child, ana on Thursday afternoon said : "Tell mamma and brother Eddie t ani going to heaven." A few moments before the last summons came, she made an effort to speak ; her heartbroken father, who buHg bver his dying child's bed, asked what he
could do for her ; she said piteously : "Papa, kiss Katie!" making an ef
fort to meet her father in a last kiss
and died. The sympathies of all
are extended to the stricken parents, and especially to the mother, who
herself sick, was unable to be pre

dying child. The remains were taken to Ellettsville on tbe noon train, Friday. Smith A Murdoek, two miles northwest Cutright's bridgeon 8alt Creek, have purchased of Geo. W, Pennv of Newark, 0.,an improved
