Our Current Gossip

Little Frankie Tidrick, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dr. L. M. Tidrick, died last Wednesday of the diptheria. His illness was of brief duration, and he was not thought dangerous until about a day before his death. Frankie was a promising boy, of seven years and was loved dearly by the family, for his gentle and manly ways.

The funeral took place at three o'clock on Thursday, which was attended by a large number of admiring acquaintances and sympathizing friends.
