From Nevada Representative July 23, 1884

Story City.

....We are sorry to chronicle the death of Julia Thompson, who died July 11th. She was about 17 years old. This is a great loss to her mother, as she was her principal help. Mrs. T. has been severely tried as she not only loses her children, but her husband was sent away some time ago as not being of sound mind. Sympathy is this case is not enough, material aid is necessary, and we hope the people of this community will respond with cheerful heart.
