Added by S. Ferrall:
Mrs. Smith of Red Wing, Minn., brought a fatherless and motherless child for Mrs. Wm. Brown to take care of and raise. The father, a Mr. Graham died three months ago with a fever, and its mother died a week after the child was born. Mr. Graham was a wealthy merchant but left no relatives to care for his family, so the little waif comes to its grand parents, Mr. and Mrs. Brown, where it will be well cared for.
