Death of Mrs. BURKHART.

Blanche LAUGHLIN, wife of W. G. BURKHART, died at their home three miles west of this city Monday, after an illness of a year of more from consumption. Deceased was a daughter of the late Harvey P. LAUGHLIN, and was about thirty years of age. She grew to womanhood in the neighborhood in which she died, and had many warm friends throughout the community. There is an unusual tinge of sadness in the taking away of this young wife and mother, just as she was fairly entered upon a life of usefulness and happiness. Many friends will sympathize with the bereaved husband and family in their affliction. The remains will be interred in this city today.
