Died.
The last sad rites were performed over the remains of the infant daughter of Lemon B. and Aggie H. (Kurtz) Furlow, on Tuesday last. Elva Daisy was not permitted to remain long with her parents in this troublesome and wicked world, but was soon taken to that better world and that higher life of which all good people have a foretaste here below
Her funeral was largely attended and many tears flowed for her who has gone to that borne from whence no traveler returns. Her sufferings, brought on by cholera infantum, were of short duration, she being only sick three days. She died on October 1, aged 4 months and 27 days.
The funeral took place from the home of the parents on the mother’s side, about one mile north of Lincoln. Interment at Lincoln. Rev. D. C. Tobias spoke words of condolence to the sorrowing relatives and friends.
