Died.-About ten o'clock last Wednesday night, little Annie Bennett, youngest daughter of O.W. and F.M. Bennett, after a long and painful illness.

The funeral took place in the Congregational church Thursday afternoon, Rev. A.E. Arnold officiated.

Little Annie had suffered for a number of weeks from inflammatory rheumatism, the malady striking the heart, and sufferings were most intense in character. It was painful to witness her agony , struggles for breath, but all that for her parents and a faithful physician could do to alleviate her sufferings proved of vain, and at last death came to ease her of pain.

Annie was a bright, winsome child, precocious and lovable; the parents will sadly miss their favorite.
