The Nevada Representative, Nevada, Story County, Iowa, Wednesday, March 10, 1880.

Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Bell's little daughter, Edith R., aged about 3 years died on the 4th inst., from the effect of black measles. She was a bright little girl, the oldest of two children and a pet among all who know her. Other may take the place in the household of the one departed, but there is a place in the hearts of the parents which only memory and sadness can fill.
