A young man named Hawn, of Lincoln township, aged about 22, died yesterday. His fatal illness was very sudden, as no longer ago than last Saturday night he was out milking the cows. The funeral was held today, and the body was buried at the Hooten cemetery. His mother and sister are at present sick with typhoid fever, one of them quite seriously so.
