Crawford Clippings

Wm. Peters of Bevington, died last week of fever contracted while railroading in Nebraska. He was a quiet and industrious boy of 19 years of age. He had not been in Nebraska long when he was taken down with fever, coming home sick never rallied from the attack. We sympathize with his parents.
