Died.

SAWYER - In Milford township, April 2, 1892, Miss Minnie Sawyer, aged 21 years.

She had been suffering with consumption for more than a year, but kept up till after her father's death in January. Since then she has failed rapidly, and finally succumbed to the inevitable.

She was born in Franklin county, Iowa, October 5, 1868, and came with her parents to Dickinson county nine years ago. The funeral was held at the house. Arrangements had been made to go to Milford but the rain and bad roads prevented.

The remains were interred in Okoboji Ceemetery.
