Death of Mrs. William Drury.

1t is a long time since this community
mas experienced SO severe a shock as the
one sustained Tuesday upon learning of
the sudden and unexpected death of
Mrs. Will Drury. Less than two weeks
ago Mrs. Will Drury, the picture of
beauty and health went to Milton for a
short visit with friends of her glrlhood
days. Either Saturday or Sunday of
last week Mrs. Drury was taken violent
ly i'll. Sunday afternoon brought
change in her condition that caused so
great alarm that the husband was called
from Langdon to her bedside by tele
phone. He reached there to find that
she had already passed into a condition
of unconsciousness from which she never
awoke, gradually weakening until the
end came as peaceful sleep on Monday
night between ten and eleven o'clock
Death is understood as being directly
due to blood poisoning. All that medical
skill and nursing could do had been
without avail The death came as a
trying and severe blow to the family. In
addition to the husband, to whom she
was united on New Years Day-less than
seven weeks ago there arc left to mourn
father and two younger sisters, living
at Morden, IN Manitoba. Deceased's s
maiden name was Lilly Sweet and had
| barely reached her twenty second birth
| day when taken from this life to the
home beyond the grave. She had spent
much of her girlhood days here
in Cavalier county and OF late years
as popular teacher of schools IN the
north and western parts of the county
In each of the localities where she had
taught the name of Miss Lilly Sweet was
known alike by the parents and scholars
as ono expressing all that goes to make
up a lovehble character. This after
noon at half past two o'clock the funeral
is being held from the Presbyterian
church, interment following in the
Masonic cemetary east of town. The

circle of friends of the bereaved ones in
expressing heart felt sympathy.

cided to come back to listen to the ad-

that the winter wheat in Kansas is at the

has been remarkably warm and dry. He
also remarked that he had talked with
