Died. At Fredericksburg, Iowa, Jan. 29th, 1887, of congestion of the lungs, Corolin, youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. PRESCOTT, aged 11 months and 15 days. Mr. and Mrs. PRESCOTT brought it to Hardin for burial, driving across the country last Sunday, through the terrible cold and storm. Only last June they came on a similar sad errand, that time burying a child who had been drowned. They seem to be having more than their share of misfortune.
