From Nevada Representative June 11, 1902

--The Chief Reporter of Perry contains the following relating to Miss Blanche Humphrey who died in that city recently:

She had suffered for more than a year and a half from diabetes. Last October she and her mother left Perry and went to California where they spent the winter. The trip was somewhat beneficial to Miss Humphrey, but the disease was too chronic and could not be cured. The deceased was a lovely young lady and had a large circle of friends who held her in high esteem. She was pure, noble and womanly, and her death is keenly felt.
