Death ended the sufferings of Lewis Mahmens last Sunday morning. He died of cancer of the face. It had eaten the flesh from his hair down to the collar bone. Surely death is a welcome visitor to any one who suffered as he did. The funeral was held from the Congregational church Tuesday at 2 o'clock p.m. The bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community.
