Ruth Julia, aged 10 months and
z days, daughter of Daniel and Mel
lie (Holden) Tarbell died Nov. 2, at
her home in No. Springfield, under
peculiarly sad circumstances
The mother put her little one to
bed at the usual time; she had ap-
peared to be in usual health, and had
eaten her supper as usual, and was
quiet through the night. In the morn
ing the little brother aged IA years
who shared her crib, awoke first and
refused to leave the crib, pointing to
his little sister saying, "See there"
This aroused the mothers attention
and on rearranging the bed clothes
noticed that the little girl did not
breathe and that she was cold. Two
doctors were hastily summoned and
every effort made to restore her but
with no avail. They made thorough
examination and pronounced it a
case of water gathered around the
brain. She lay in perfectly natur-
al position and died apparently with
out struggle.
Funeral at the house Nov. 4, buri-
al at No. Springfield. The many
friends of the stricken parents SYM
pathize with them in their affiiction.
