NEVADA GIRL KILLED BY FALLING TREE

NEVADA—Funeral services will be held from the Evangelical church here at 2 p. m. Sunday for Norma Jean Dunahoo, three years old, who was killed Friday afternoon when a tree fell on her in a timber near her home in Indian Creek township.

The child, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Dunahoo, had been out with her uncle, Howard Beal, who was cutting timber in the woods. It was reported he cut a branch of the tree, and that his niece was safe, but the tree suddenly toppled ard crashed down upon the child, crushing her skull.

The church services will follow a short prayer service at 1:15 p. m. from the home. Burial will be in the Nevada cemetery.
