Death came unexpectedly to us all last week. It took away two from the same family, father and daughter.
Mr. Eli Cailey, an aged man, of near this place, died at his home of pneumonia, at one a.m., Thursday, and Friday at two p.m., his daughter Elizabeth Jacks, died of the same disease. Funeral services took place Sunday at two p.m. at the Reform Church. Both funerals were preached at the same time, after which both bodies were laid to rest until the resurrection morn, in the Chapman cemetery. Mr. Cailey has left a wife, one daughter and four sons, and a host of friends to mourn his loss. Mrs. Jacks has left her companion, one sister, four brothers, one stepson and a host of friends to mourn her loss.
