XV. OLD SERIES, NO. 8 VOL. II NEW SERIES, NO. 23 Mrs. L. G. LAMARRE died in the Third ward, at her residence, last Monday evening. The venerable lady was 71 years old, and her children carried the remains for burial to Canada. Mr. C. O. HOLMES a resident, of Sherman, was killed in a well he was digging last week. Mr. HOLMES was well known by many of our citizens, and in his own locality was popular for his sturdy manly qualities of head and heart. He was one of the pioneers of the county and made for himself and those dependent on him a home in the wilderness. Miss MARY M. MORTON, of Riverton, daughter of ALEX MORTON, died in this city at the residence of her aunt, Mrs. WM. BUSH, in the Fourth ward, on Tuesday evening. The deceased was scarcely 17 years of age but a bright and intelligent girl. She received a certificate from the county examiners last month passing a credit- able examination, and hoped to have taught school this winter. A bereaved and fond family mourn unfilled hopes and a bright promis- ing young life gone out, a desolated hearth-stone, a sad home. Death's mysteries close those still greater mysteries of life. A wide circle of friends sympathize with the stricken parents and friends.
