Young daughter of:
Maggie Estus Dead
This community was shocked and pained beyond expression in words on the receipt of a telegram from Red Rock last Thursday night announcing the death of Maggie Estus at the home of her sister, Mrs. C.A. Fraser, at about 11 o'clock.
Mrs. Estus received word in the evening and went to Red Rock on the 5 o'clock train.
It was not thought that the girl was so seriously sick, and the sudden call falls with great weight upon the sorely afflicted family, this being the third time in a little over a year that this family has been called to lay in the grave a dear one. At such times the poverty of words to adequately express what the heart feels is made manifest. It must have been under such pressure that the royal palmist wrote, "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want," and gave to the world of grief-stricken ones an example of sublimest confidence in the God who careth for us. To this Good Shepherd we commend the deeply afflicted ones.
J.J. Estus went to Red Rock on the early train and arrangements are being made for the funeral from the Presbyterian Church on arrival of the 1:30 train this afternoon.
