From Nevada Representative September 1, 1886

Died.

Emma B. Squires, daughter of A. W. and Setta Squires and adopted daughter of I. L. Bukers, died August 22, 1886, aged four years, nine months and twenty days. The cause of death was intermittent and catarrhal fever. The mother of the little girl died several years ago of consumption, which no doubt, to a greater or less extent was also the cause of the child's death. The foster parents feel deeply the loss they have sustained in the death of this little one, as they have no children of their own. May the Lord comfort and sustain them and aid them to look aloft for help.
