“PASSING AWAY.”
The Reaper Death Claiming his own.
The past week has seen unusual mortality. Calmarics tells of the death of Mrs. Giesen, widow of Henry Giesen, Happener records the death of Mrs. Frank Darrington, at her home in Highland township; and intelligence was received yesterday of the death of Mrs. M. Clark, mother of Mrs. Geo. Pennington, at Castalia. In Decorah, three have passed to “their long home.” Mrs. Bott, died at her home in West Decorah, on Friday last, and was buried on Sunday last. She had been ill for nearly a year. The next to go was Mr. Jas. McEneny, a venerable, pioneer resident, aged 86 years. His residence in Decorah goes back into the fifties. The funeral services were held at the Catholic church yesterday. The third was Mr. James Hargraves, another old resident, who formerly lived at Freeport and Trout Run, and for some years past has resided in West Decorah. His funeral is being held to-day. Further particulars next week.
