DEATH again entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Newton last Saturday, when their little daughter Mable, aged two years, was called to the other world. The cause of death was lung fever, after an illness of some duration. The funeral was held at the home at 2:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon conducted by Rev. Brooks after which the remains were tenderly laid to rest in the I.O.O.F. cemetery. This makes two deaths in their home within a week, their infant child being buried last Wednesday. They have the earnest sympathy of friends in their bereavement.
