We are sorry to learn of the death of
Mrs. Lizzie Mann, daughter of F. c. Kline,
formerly of this place, but now of South
Bethlehem. The deceased had been living
in Florida for the last years. Being in
poor health, she came home to her parents
several months ago, where, after lingering
with that deceptive and iatai disease cou-
sumption, she departed this life on last Sun
day morning and was buried in Bethlehem
last Thursday. She leaves husband, sew
eral small children, father and mother,
brothers and sisters to mourn her untimely
death, as she was yet in tie prime of life.
We sincerely rondole with the bereaved
/ family and friends and trust their loss will
be her gain. JUSTICE.
