Death of Leo Doughtery.
The death of our little friend and school mate, Leo Doughtery, was a sad blow to all who knew him. His death was caused by blood poison, from running a piece of screen wire in his heel, May 30th. Leo passed away to be with his redeemer June 5th. His suffering was intense. He was a bright and intelligent boy, and was always found in his class at Sabbath school, where he will be greatly missed. We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the father, mother and little sister, who mourn the loss of a darling son and loving brother, besides his many friends, both young and old. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Baker of the Methodist church, and the remains were laid to rest in the Cambridge cemetery to await Resurrection mourn.
