--Died, at the home of her parents, Miss Catharine Anna Moore, Oct. 14. Deceased was born Oct. 21, 1870. She lived with her parents until about five years ago, when she went with her brother John to O'Brien county. On the 5th of February, 1898, she was taken sick with the measles, and from this disease drifted into comsumption, which proved fatal. She was brought home on the 10th of May, and from that time was confined to the house; but through all these months she waited patiently for her Master to bid her come without murmuring. She united with the U.P. church of White Oak about eight years ago, of which she lived a consisent member until her death. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Woodburn of Ewart, who spoke words of consolation to the grief-stricken family, after which the remains were laid to rest in the White Oak cemetery to await the resurrection. She leaves a father, mother, six brothers, and five sisters to mourn the loss of a dear one.
