The cheerful home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Carey Wright was unexpectedly
changed into one of grief during the
past week by the death of their little
daughter, Gladys, aged , years, 5
months and days. She was bright,
promising child, whose winning smiles
and pleasant ways had won the ad-
miration of all that came within the
circle of her influence. She was
greatly attached to her baby brother
and was the idol of doting parents,
who looked forward with joyful antici-
patton to the sunshine and cheer she
would continue to bring to the home
circle through the developing and un-
folding charms of youth and young
womanhood, little dreaming of the
fate that awaited their darling. She
was well and playful Friday up to the
time of retiring when the mother put
her to bed, but later went to see if
she was properly tucked in for the
night, and was Mortified to find her in
Convulsions from which she continued
to suffer with greater or less intesity
until 8 a. m. Saturday morning, when
death came to her relief. The grief
stricken parents have the sympathy
of many friends in their bereavement.
