A sudden sadness spread over the people of west Hhighland last Friday. Friday morning Mrs. August Mough [sic] (Mau) gave birth to twins and passed into eternity in about an hour afterwards, leaving her husband and five small children, the oldest being but a little more than three years old, to mourn her loss. What is home without a mother? Mr. and Mrs. Paul Lago have done the Christian act and have taken the twin babies to raise. Where could a better home be found? The funeral services took place on Sunday.
