The Hon. Z. B. Allen and wife have re-
turned from trip of some months into
Texas. Mr. Allen says Texas may be all
right but Kansas is good enough for him.

OBITUARY.

DIED: At her home in lola at $50
a. m. on Sunday, May IS, 1890, Alice
Luella Campbell, in the end year of
her age.

tiful girl and while her death has been

blow to the widowed mother and to
the sister and brothers, who have lost,
in losing her, SO largea part of life's
brightness. She bore with wonderful
patience and fortitude, the WEAKNESS
and pain of her long illness. Realizing
from the first that 1t must terminate
fatally, she uttered no word of COM
plant or regret or fear. Just Begin
ming life, she seemed as willing to lay
1t down rs IL four score years had
passed over her and left her world
weary. Death had no terrors for her.
The grave was only q shaded gateway
through which she longed to pass that
she might enter into the pleasant land
and be at rest for evermore. So when
Gods messenger came he found her
with her wasted hands reached to
greet him and smile of welcome on
her lips.
The funeral services were held at
the Methodist church at IL a. m. ON
Monday and were very appropriate
and impressive. The casket was borne
by six young ladies who had been
members of the same Sunday School
class as the departed, and was covered
with flowers. After singing and
Scripture reading there were brief and
touching addresses by Revs. Freed
and Hyatt and Mr.. Wood her Sunday
School teacher, all testifying to the
beauty of her character and her firm
religious faith. After the services
were ended the remains were borne to
the Southern Kansas station and ia
ken to Colony where they were in
tered in the family lot.
