Diptheria, that dread disease has made its appearance in Cresco; a child of Mr. Baldner, living on the South side having died of it last Friday, and since then one of Frank Schafer's children in New Oregon died of the same disease and the other children are down with the same. We hope they may not be called upon to mourn for others of the children.
