Word was received here of the death of little eight year old Genevieve Wright, of Cairo, Ill.

Genevieve was operated on for appendicitis July 27. She lingered until Wednesday, August 15, when death claimed the little sufferer.

She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Wright, who moved from Le Mars in May of this year.

She leaves besides her parents, one sister, Jessaline, and one half-sister, Yuba Whitaker.

Genevieve was a sweet winsome little girl and many Le Mars friends mourn her untimely death.

Mr. Wright was employed at the Plymouth mill in Le Mars.
