Died

At Britt, of pneumonia, Minnie Lauretta Brooks, April 26, 1888, aged 1 year, 7 months, and 9 days. Little Minnie was a very lovable little child, and her death is a sad, - a killing blow, not only to her doting parents, but to all who knew her. Saturday, the sorrowing parents took the little body to New Hampton and placed it in the family burial lot. The sympathy of all is theirs.
