Evelyn Marie Mills, eight year old daughter of Mrs. Miles Timmons, passed away at the family home Saturday morning, June 1, 1935, of the valvular heart disease after being confined to her bed for about 10 days. The little girl was born February 5, 1927, at Osceola, Iowa.

She is survived by her father, mother, step-father, a brother and two sisters.

Funeral services, conducted by the Rev. J. W. Neyman, were held at the home Sunday morning at 10 o'clock and the remains were taken to a cemetery near Truro, Iowa for burial in the family plot.

She had never complained and seemed to be in good health until she was stricken with arthritis and heart trouble on the afternoon of May 21 while at play. She was a patient little sufferer to the end although at times the pain is almost unbearable.
