Died - At the home of her parents in this place, Friday, Sept. 8, 1893, Cressina, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Abel Busker, aged 7 years and 4 days. She had been sick for some time with typhoid fever, and was supposed to have safely passed the worst, but a sudden change in her condition soon resulted in her little light going out. Cressina Busker was born in Strackholt, Germany, Sept. 3, 1886, crossing the waters and coming to this country when quite young. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Henry Ballert, from the home.

Wm. Kennedy, the young man on trial at Ida Grove for manslaughter, was found guilty as indicted, but owing to the good character the young man bore, and to the circumstances surrounding the case, Judge Paine made the sentence as light as possible, imposing a fine of $800, enough to cover the entire expense of the trial, and one day in the penitentiary, the latter sentence to be suspended during good behavior.

Another instance of unjustifiable carelessness was shown at the home of Mr. Wedeking, in Delaware tp., recently, when he left a loaded gun sitting in a corner in easy reach of his little boy, who picked it up and pointed it at his young cousin. The result - gun discharged; little girl shot; funeral next day; relatives have sympathy of the community.
