asked regarding the matter Mr..

sorrowing husband being left to
mourn her loss. The deceased
resided in Cottonwood since her
marriage and was generally re-
spected by all and known as a
hard worker and one whose
principal aim in life was to raise
her family up to become good,
conscientious citizens.
The saddest part of the sad af-
fair is the fact that with the
mother gone the husband and six
children, ranging in age from
six years to two weeks, were
forced to separate. When this
was known the true christian
spirit of the people was manifest
ed and all the children have al
ready been given good homes.
The eldest boy will remain with
his father. The second, George,
has been taken by Mr.. and Mrs.
John Hoene, of Keuterville.
The fourth, Wayne. is in the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Rad, of
Keuterville, and the twin babies
have been adopted by John Aichl-
mayr of this place. The fact
that his children are in such ex-
cellent hands will do much to as
suage the grief of the father,
who has the sympathy of the en-
tire community in his great af-
Fiction.

born to Mrs. Bash, one on Jan
uary 10Th and the other on Feb
ruary LIST. 1t was thought for
some time that the mother was
out of danger but in spite of all
medical aid could do death claim
ed its victim. The funeral was
held Sunday afternoon from the
Baptist church, the sermon be-
ing preached by Rev. L. E.
Henderson, who had many of the
large crowd present in tears dur
ing his touching discourse.
Mrs. Bash was born in Nevada
in 1877 and was only % years of
age when she died. She was
married to w. H. Bash in 1899
and to this union seven children
were born, the eldest dying in
infancy, and the others and the
