- At West Las Animas, Col. on the Sth
day OF December, Miss LUCY j. HUDNALL,
Laughter OF Robert A. Hudnall, of this
county.
Some months ago this young lady being in
falling health went to Colorado to test the
high and pure temperature of the mountains
OF that state, but like all human experiments.
this failed, and after a short stay with friends
in healthful Colorado. she died without q
struggle, and to-day her body sleeps in the
village cemetery near Wellington, in her
native county. In early childhood she met
with a serious accident that crippled her for

nently successful in vocal music, and few
persons who were permitted to enjoy the
musical treats furnished by this college in the
years past, will fail to call to mind this sweet

always attracted the hearer, and when that

and when the time came for college friend
ships to be broken up and college friends to

this institution Miss Lucy fell IN love with
the Savior, and gave her heart to God, in an
undyin2 covenant and ever afterward she
enjoyed the delightful conpanlonship of her
assembled Lord. She proved to the fullest the
truth of the promise. Thou wilt keep In
perfect peace him whose mind is STAYED ON
Thee" She fully consecrated herself to God.
and in all things sand, 'Thy will not mine
be done.' Thus is added another to the hap
