BABY GIRL PASSES AWAY

The happy home of Ed Donnelly in Scott Township near Dougherty was changed into gloom when their little girl was suddenly taken sick on Friday morning Sept. 15th, and passed away at 10 p.m. that evening.

Dr. Meary was at once called and did all he could to relieve the little sufferer, but a higher power had called her to her heavenly home from which no medical aid could avert.

The doctor pronounced her sickness caused by an enlarged liver which was pressing on her heart.

Jane Francis Donnelly was born March 17, 1916 and died September 15, 1916, lacking two days of being six months old.

The funeral took place on Sunday, internment at St. Patrick's church, where she was laid by the side of her grandparents who preceded her several years ago.

The bereft parents have the sympathy of the entire community.
