Emma, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. O. Harrenstein passed away Tuesday morning, age 4 years and 10 months. She was a bright and loving child, loved by all who knew her. Funeral services will be held Friday at the house at eleven o'clock. The remains will be laid to rest at the German Lutheran cemetery.

We had a little treasure once,
She was our joy and pride,
We loved her, ah, perhaps too well
For soon she slept, and died
All is dark, with in our dwelling
Lonely are our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly,
Has forever passed away.
