—B. F. Little and wife mourn, the death of their son Will, who died at Independence last week. Will was for many years a mail agent on the Milwaukee
between McGregor and Sanborn, but failing health compelled him to resign his position last fall, when he went to Colorado in hopes that the climate
there might prove beneficial. But in this he was disappointed, and just before the holidays himself and wife came to Oelwein and spent that season with his parents. A few weeks ago they went to Independence to reside.

Deceased was forty years of age. He-was buried in the cemetery at Independence, the services being held Friday.
