Died, in this place, May 4th, 1882, of diphtheria, Millie Netique, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Perrigo, aged five years, eleven months and 2 days.

Again the angel of death has entered Mr. Perrigo's home and taken another of their little ones. Affliction and sorrow have come to them in rapidly repeated succession. Two of their children have passed away within a few days, and both were stricken down when in apparent health. Some years ago they lost a babe, three in all having now gone before to the silent land. One is left to comfort in some degree their sorrowing hearts.
