The sad intelligence came break
ing in upon the gay hearts of the
young people of Logan last week, of
the death of Miss Lulu Mcdowell Of
Jacksonville, and cloud of gloom
settled down upon our town as
heavily perhaps as upon her home
community. Miss Mcdowell was
well known here; had visited here
often among relatives and friends
and was universally loved by all
who knew her. She was of q sweet
disposition, kind and gentle manner
the acme ofpure young womanhood.
In the past winter she attended o
reception in Logan, and she bore the
bloom of health upon her cheek
sweet and charming in her gentle
simplicity. She was the guest al
the reception of one Of Logan's most
noble young men, and he was deem.
ed favored in the securing of sc
pleasant companion for the evening
Her untimely death is indeed @
shock to our young people who SC
we'll knew her, and her family and
friends have the deep sympathy o
the entire valley.
