From Nevada Representative December 24, 1890

DIED.--At her home east of town on the morning of the 16th of December, 1890, Nannie, eldest child of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Anderson, aged twenty two years. For many months she had been a patient sufferer from that dread disease, consumption--at first hopeful that she might recover but, as the end drew near, she expressed perfect resignation to the will of God and died triumphant through faith. A thoughtful and obedient daughter, a kind and obliging sister, she will long be missed and mourned by those who knew and love her best.

"Let us be patient, God had taken from us
The earthly treasure upon which we leaned,
That from the fleeting things which He around us,
Our clinging hearts should be forever weaned."

A FRIEND.
