Miss Viola, daughter of Mrs. C. P. Nierling, of French Creek township, died Monday evening at the local hospital, following an operation for appendicitis a week previous. The cause of death was peritonitis. The deceased was 22 years old and was born and reared in French Creek township. She is survived by her mother, six brothers, two sisters and two half sisters.

Mrs. Nierling is having more than her share of trouble, having been called upon not long ago to mourn the death of her father, Peter Smith, and has the sympathy of many friends. The funeral will take place tomorrow morning, requiem mass at the St. Mary’s church, Lycurgus, and burial beside her father in St. Mary’s cemetery.
