From Nevada Representative March 30, 1887

DIED.--Thursday, March, 24th, 1887, at the Methodist parsonage, Mabel Verne, infant daughter of Rev. and Mrs. A. T. Jeffrey, aged one year and two days. The little one had been sick nearly all winter, and its life had often been despaired of before the end finally came. The funeral was conducted Saturday from the parsonage by Rev. J. Fegtly, assisted by Revs. Ziegler, Ferguson and Groat. The community heartily sympathize with the bereaved parents in their first loss in their family.

"Early, bright, transient,
Chaste as morning dew,
She sparkled, was exhale,
And went to Heaven.

SUBMITTER'S NOTE: Mabel Verne Jeffrey was the daughter of Rev. Alexander Thomas Jeffrey and Nellie Dungan.
