OBITUARY.

TEETSHORN.

On Sunday afternoon, March 31st, after a brief illness from pleura-pneumonia , Marian Marcia Teetshorn, little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eben Teetshorn, closed her baby eyes in a last, long sleep.

The six months and twenty-nine days of her brief life since Sept. 2, 1917, had brightened the home and brought happiness to the fond parents, sister and brothers all of whose hearts are sad and whose home is lonely since this little angel presence is no longer visible; but her influence still abides and their lives are richer because of the memory of her brief stay upon earth.

The funeral services on Tuesday afternoon, April 2nd, at the home was conducted by Rev. G. M. Shoemaker who spoke from the words, “He will feed his flock like a Shepherd, He will gather the lambs in His arms and carry them in His bosom.” Miss Schuetz and Mrs. Walter Paley, of Ridgeway, sang two beautiful duets and a large number of relatives, friends and neighbors attended the service, thereby expressing their sympathy for the bereaved ones.

The little body was laid away in beautiful Oak Lawn Cemetery at Cresco.
