Miss Angie Guthrie

1t has been aptly said that There IS
a nesting worm In every flower. And
when we admire the spreading leaves
and unfolding blossoms, the traitor
often consumes the lobe, and all the
beauty falls"
These reflections prevent them
selves to the mind when death enters
the family circle and snatches from
it one. of the most loved and highly
cherished of its blossoms. So death
entered the home circle of Mr.. and
Mrs. Guthrie of Kendrick Friday
morning and carried from them one
of their choicest blossoms, their six
teen year old daughter, Angie, who
died at the Marion County Hospital,
after an illness of over four weeks.
Miss Guthrie was operated on for
appendicitis some time ago. but all
efforts in her behalf proved to be in
vain and she passed peacefully away
surrounded by her loved ones, to
whom our sympathies go out in this
their saddest affiction. Her remains
were taken to Kendrick, where they
will be laid to rest.
