Total,
Death of Miss Esther Thomp
son.

The death of Miss Esther Thomp-
son, the daughter of Mr.. James B.
Thompson, of Cottage Grove. which
occurred last Sunday morning, in
the twenty sixth year of her age,
will carry gloom aud sorrow to the
hearts of a large circle of relatives
and friends. A true Christian
woman, possessed of bright intel
ligence, her ever affable and viva
cious disposition endeared her to all
With whom she came in contact
She was beloved by her friends and
associates for her gentleness of ma
ture and goodness of heart, the
graciousuess of her presence will be
sadly missed by those who mourn
her untimely loss Indeed it is sad
to see one with SO many bright ex-
pectations of life and happiness 90
suddenly called away. She has
gone from earth, and her beautifully
useful life is ended, but the world is
better because she lived.
