A Little Child Dead
The death angel visited the
home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Rob
erson of Everett Tuesday night
Nov. lKth, and took away Lilla
their baby girl, age four and half
years.
.lilla was taken with a hoarse
ness Monday morning but all
thought it was nothing hutacol(j|
and her mother treated hor all
day for a cold, but she grew
worse at night and a Doctor was
called. It seemed that nothing
they did relieved her. .
Late Tuesday afternoon her
mother became alarmed at her
condition and were
called. They pronounced it
membraneous croup, all was done
that could be"done *but nothing
could stay thejicy hand of death.
She passed'away a few minutes
before 9jo'clock.
Lilla was'such a sweet child
that loved her so much.
Her death'was so sudden that we
cannot realize she is gone. We
miss her so badly but know she
is at rest, and may we say,
"God's will, not ours be done."
Her remains were taken to Mr.
James Congleton's, her grand
father, and there laid to rest in
the family'ccmetery, amid a large
concoursejof relatives and friends.
The floral offerings were very
pretty. The entire community
sympathizes with the bereaved
family and may they feel that
their losslis her'gain.

'Which never can be fillea,
voice we loved so well
Is now forever stilled.

SLAVERY
• >
The colored people were made free by a proclamation of Abraham
Lincoln, so today we have more white slaves than black ones. The
man who is only one step from want, one step from hunger, is a slave
if he is white. He is not his own master. He is forced to accept just
such terms as those to whom he is under bondage may dictate. A
saving account at this bank will make you a free man and make you
feel independent. You can start a savings account with one dollar
and then deposit any sum you may desire.
