Colored Girl Dies Happy
After Long Suffering.
LAST HOURS IN COMFORT
Salvation Army Provides for
Dying Maiden.
Taken from Dirty, Crowded and Un.
sanitary Home to House Furnished
for Her-WelcOmes Masters call

The life-name OF Minnie Thornton,
the young colored girl recently TAX
en- under the protecting wing OF the
Salvation Army, went out in light
at $3.50 o'clock "Wednesday evening.
Death found her comfortable and
happy in the neat little home on
North State street, provided by the
county and Army.
The pitiful case OF this nineteen
year-old sufferer of tuberculosis was
brought to the notice of Marion's
kind-hearted citizens through Mr..
Victor Bryant, treasurer of the local
Army. Mr.. Bryant, a constant call
er in the home of the unfortunate
and destitute, recognized the danger
OF contagion from a consumptive
confined in tiny rooms with numer-
GUS members of a family, and with
no sanitary precautions against the
spread of the disease. Through his
instrumentality, the county rented q
small, unoccupied house on North
State street, and the Army under
took to provide furnishings for an
invalid and nurse. A house to house
canvas was made, and the matter
taken up by the press. with the re-
suit that quite the coolest sick room
imaginble was arranged, and the girl
was removed from her dark, cramped
quarters to the improvised hospital.
Just sixteen days ago, Minnie came
into her new Inheritance. Since that
time all the comforts and many of
the luxuries of life have been provided
by the Army and county, and Min
ME was happy. When nIr. Bryant |
called "wednesday morning, she
voiced a desire for some apples, |
which the caller promised to procure.
Realizing her weakened condition, |
Mr.. Bryant suggested in the course
Of conversation, that often sufferers |
would prefer death to life because OF |
the beautiful promises for us just
beyond.
II know It would De better" the |
sick girl responded with conviction.
Her last moments we're ones of close
communion with her God.
Minnie is one OF large family OF

the beginning of, her illness she was
staying with a sister in Plain City,
but was later moved to her home in
