One of the saddest cases that has over come to our notice is that of the death of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Rood, who lived a few miles northwest of Dolliver. Both died of pneumonia. Mr. Rood was very ill when his wife passed away, February 8, and his death occured eight days later. Five children, three boys and two two little girls are left orphans. They will be cared for by relatives in Wisconsin.
