From the Mdepeaaent.

From the Independent
Death entered the family of Mr.. Morgan
Morgan last Sunday and called away Miss
Josephine. a bright lady, and an only daugh-
ter. The funeral was preached in the Epis-
copal church at Bunker Hill Tuesday and
was largely attended by host of relatives
and friends. Miss Josephine was gener-
al favorite with all her acquaintance. Be
ing of a kind and loveable nature, she will
be greatly missed, both in the darkened
home circle and by her many friends. We
sympathize with the family.
From the MutiasJurg Herald:
The many friends of Rev. J. W Hedges
we're sorely grieyed to hear of the loss that
befell him. by the burning of his barn, near
Hedgesyille, Wednesday night. The barn
had only been built a few years. His hay
and grain were destroyed. Loss about $1,000,
with a small insurance.

The funeral of Miss Josephine Morgan,
at Bunker Hill, Tuesday, was one of the
largest ever known there. There were about
l35 vehicles in line.
