The funeral of Mrs. Zimmerman, eldest daughter of Mr. C. Kluckhohn, took place today. A large concourse of friends followed the body to its last resting place. It is but a year since the daughter, Mary, left her home, a joyous bride, full of happy anticipations as to the future; but the hand of death has stricken her, and the life work is done. Mrs. Zimmerman was a faithful Christian woman, and the influence of her quiet, peaceful life will shed its rays for many years to come. The aged parents and the near friends of the deceased, have the sincere sympathy of our people. Death has visited this family very frequently within the past year, but it has found them all prepared.
