Death.
Last week Wednesday was a sad day for Mr. C.H. NELSON, living three miles
southwest of the city. Two of his oldest children, aged about 3 or 4 years, were
taken sick with was was supposed to be croup early in the morning and both died
about noon. Mrs. Nelson, who had an infant only about a week old, was taken
sick, soon after, and died about 10 o'clock at night, probably from heart
disease and grief at the sudden loss of her two older children. Thus in one
short day a happy, healthy family was broken up and all except the father and
infant child were numbered among the dead. Mrs. Nelson was a lady much
respected, aged only 26. The funeral took place at the residence of Mr. Nelson
on Saturday, the services being conducted by Rev. J.G. Groenmiller of Hanover.
