A very sad death occurred in the family of Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Lynch last Saturday. Their little three-year-old daughter, Della Belle, passed over the silent river, a victim of inflammation of the bowels and spinal meningitis. The funeral was held at the Baptist church Sunday afternoon, the sermon being preached by Rev. Toothacre. The interment was made in the east side cemetery. The afflicted parents are nearly prostrated with grief, and the sympathy entertained for them is general. (The Northern Vindicator, Estherville, IA, December 17, 1891)
