Sudden Death of Henrietta Dahly.
Death has been busy again during the past week, and has chosen a bright young life for one of its victims. Miss Henrietta Dahly, only surviving daughter of Mrs. B. O. Dahly, died very suddenly last Sunday evening at the family home, one mile north of town. For a week previous she had been ill with the grip, and on Saturday evening developed some symptoms of measles. Sunday morning she was up and about, apparently no worse than on Saturday, but during the afternoon became worse and failed rapidly, death resulting at 6:30 o’clock. The shock to the mother and brother has been almost more than they can bear, and the public sympathizes deeply with them in their affliction. Miss Dahly was a preposessing young lady who enjoyed the esteem of a large circle of friends, and whose untimely death is regretted by all.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows she was born in 1880; however, they show the date of death as April 2, which doesn’t agree with the above.
