   due to pneumonia.  A baby daughter born about the
   same time passed away with the mother.  All the other
   members of the family have been ill in bed. The
   funeral of Mrs. Burkin was held at St. mary's church
   Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, conducted by Rev,
   Father Tennessen, interment being made in the
   adjoining cemetery.  The body of the infant daughter
   was also interred in St. mary's cemetery on Monday.
