Mrs. H. Gilbert died, at her home a mile west of Kasson, Sunday about noon. She was taken sick last winter. The disease was supposed to be typhoid fever, but soon proved to be consumption. Mrs. Gilbert was over fifty years of age and the mother of a large family. Elders H. Pearce and Geo. Houghton conducted funeral services yesterday afternoon and the remains were interred in the cemetery south of town.

Note: Burial in Moon Cemetery.
