Miss Maggie Morse died at her home in this place last Thursday, after an illness of two weeks. She was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. Morse and was dearly beloved by all who knew her. The funeral services were held Saturday afternoon and was perhaps the largest funeral that was ever held in this town.
The parents and relatives have the sympathy of all in this their sad hour of affliction, and knowing Maggie as we did we know "she is asleep in Jesus."
