The child was missed about 11 o’clock, and was found in a pond near the barn about noon. It is presumed that she had started to go to her father, at work in the field, and stopped at the pond to play. A brother of Nelson was drowned in the same pond many years ago. The pond is formed by the natural draining of the surrounding land, having no inlet or outlet, but holding water sufficient to be a permanent place for watering stock. The funeral was held at the Easton church this afternoon; Rev. D. H. Shelly of this city officiating.
