County and City

The death of Mrs. Cornelia Degraff occurred last Thursday evening, and her funeral services were held at the house Friday p.m., Rev. Dr. Ely officiating. Her sudden sickness and death deprives her helpless husband of the tender and constant care which she had so long given him. It may be said that she gave her life in ministering to his needs.
