"Death has again entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. D. Campbell and has claimed as its victim their bright little daughter Nellie, aged eight years and three months, who died at 11 o'clock last night. This is the second time within a few days that this family has been called upon to give up a loved one. None but those who have passed through such an ordeal can realize to its fullest extent the sore affliction which rests upon them. The sorrowing parents, brothers and sister, have the sincere sympathy of the community in their sad bereavement. The funeral will take place from the family residence tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon at 3 o'clock. The other two members of the family who are sick with the same disease are doing well, and the attending physicians have hopes for their recovery."
