Clara Nettie Soden
Soden-At the residence of her parents, two miles west of Shellsburg, on Monday night at 12:o'clock
Miss Clara nettie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Soden age (? I cant read sorry) years and (?I can't read) days.
The deceased was a bright and promisting you lady, and she was beloved and respected by all accquainted with her. She was kind of disposition and courteous in meanor. She seldom complanined of her lot, but bore up under her affictions and sufferings with patience and fortitude to the very end. She was taken down with typhoid fever and being naturally of a frail constitution it proved too great a burden for her to bear up under, and she was compeiled after a hard struggle, to succumb. All that a skillful physician and loving relatives and friends could do to restore her to health was done, but at last their skill and untiring attendance and loving sympathy were inadequate. She was snatched from their grasp by an all wise providence who so often overrules the plans and purpose and desires of men. The grief-stricken parents and the other friends of the deceased have the heart-felt sympathy of the entire community in their hour of deep grief, as attended by the large attendance at the funeral on Wednesday. Nettie now sweatly sleeps in the silent cemetery, by she is only separated from those near and dear to her by a short span. They will all soon meet again in the eternal life beyond, and then there will be no more parting.
