Ormed Il week ago. but she was I'M

ident OF the city since her early wom-
anhood. Hers was an admirable char
actcr. and her death at an untimcly
age will be Il source Of sincere ana
general regret. Death has laid its
hands heavily upon this family in the
past few years. The death of the
father vas followed shortly by the
death OF = sister. Miss Hattie David
son. The mother died but a short
time ago and this is followed nov by
the death today OF the youngest
member OF the family. leaving but two
sisters surviving. To them the shock
is beyond expression. and their grief
will be unmeasured.
The deceased Young laGy was born
In Canaua. Oct. >, 1870. She was a
hcVOut and earnest member of the
Episcopal church. and died in the I'M
shaken faith Of 4 better and %grander

ARTIST DEAD.
E. L. Williams Died "Wednesday Night

Bismarck people will remember Z.
l.. Williams, the young artist who
came out to the city last fall for the
purpose OF pursuing his studies OF In
dian life. He was in the city for sew
eral days and nnally went to Standing
Rock where he and his wife took a
cabin for the winter. He had been
seriously i'll with heart trouble for
some weeks, and General Williams re-
ceived a telegram today that he died
Wednesday. The funeral was held
there Thursday. The death of the
young mar is extremely sad. under
the circumstances. and there will be
much sympathy for his young wife
who is thus left practically alone
among strangers.
