Obituary.

Mary Ellen Moore, daughter of William J. and Clara Moore, was born December 1, 1896, in Jasper county, Ind., and died November 18, 1900, at 8 o’clock a. m., at the home of her Grandfather Moore, of the much dreaded and often fatal disease, diphtheria, aged \ years, 11 months and 18 days. Toward the last her suffering was intense, but she bore it with patience and fortitude, and was conscious to the end., All was done tor her that kind hands and loving hearts could do, assisted by a kind ana faithful physician; but it was of no avail, death claimed her and the Lord took her in his tender embrace and beautiful borne. Mary was a remarkably bright and lovely child, made the home bright and cheerful. Although her parents and many relatives hearts are filled with sadness at her eai Iy departure, yet they weep not as those that have no hope; but look, by an eye 6f faith, to the time when they will greet her on that beautiful plain where parting will be no more. The funeral was private and interment made

in Weston cemetery.
