uary OF some length concerning
the death Of an infant, but there is
no date line, and a fictitious name
Is signed, while the real name OF
the writer is not given. The writer
does not state when the child died,
or whore It lived before death.
For these reasons, the article is
not given place in our columns. A
notice of death is like any other
matter in this respect-it should
contain some statements of fact 10
make II OF interest 10 the general
public.
In writing for a newspaper a
notice Of death, state the facts Of
the case clearly aud briefly, add
something about the standing in
the community, if an adult. If the
head Of a family, state something
abou, the members Of the family
surviving, etc. Do not write at
length matter Of ccndolence, and
do not put in any poetry. Gotten
up properly, death notices are of
general interest, and will always
