Death came very sudden and was a terrible shock to her parents and many friends. April 7th a large number of relatives and friends gathered at the home to pay thier last respects to little Hazel. They followed the remains to Union church at New Lancaster, where they listened to a very touching sermon, after which they followed the remains to the New Lancaster cemetery, where the body was laid to rest. The bereaved parents have the entire sympathy of all their friends for little Hazel was a bright little girl, always kind and obedient and to know her was but to love her. While earth has lost a treasure, heaven has a rich young blossom. Mr. and Mrs. Smith have a little son at the verge of death at this writing, but we hope for his recovery. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/linn/obits/s/smith612gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.5 Kb
