NELLIE MAREN TAYLOR DEAD
After an Illness of Sixty Hours Dura-
tiOn, Death Affords Her Relief
From Pam.
The First Death of Pupil in the
High SchOOl-Classmates
Resolutions.

Unusually cruel seemed death when
| Monday smorLlng, many friends learned
the bitter truth that the Great Reaper
had gathered home the soul of Nellie
Naren Taylor, the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Alex. Taylor of Eighth avenue
north and Twentieth street, who had
just attained her eighteenth birthday.
1t was hard to believe the dread re.
port; all who knew the jolly, generous,
true, noble girl loved her and few knew
that she had been ILL; all were surprised
and shocked.
With characteristic courage and de-
votion she sacrificed her life for those
she loved. Last Tuesday she left the
high school, where she was member of
the senior class, to nurse Younger
brother and sister who were ill with
dlphtheria. She then was in good health,
apparently; but Friday morning the
dread disease attacked her, and at .
o'clock Monday morning she died.
Words are pow erless to express what
those who knew her feel; every day, by
every act and word, she bound her
friends closer to her. ''She would net
say or do anything to hurt anyone" says
one who knew her. She was the life of
every gathering, with her jolly laugh
and keen wit; she was true to her friends
and would always make sacrifices for
them. That she was noble and brave,
ner death shows.
She came to Great Falls with her
parents from Duluth about four years
ago and has attended the public SCHOOLS
talented and stood very high in her
class. Those who were with her in
