Couch, who live about six miles from town. The little fellows were in bathing near the house last Friday when the death knock sounded and opened its door for admittance. This was quite a blow to their mother who had to bear her grief all alone, their father being absent buying cattle. Of course friends did all in their power to comfort the mother but for such as this no comfort is in sight. Mr. Couch was sent for immediately but up to 5 p.m. Monday no word was received from him. The interment took place in the cemetery near Higgins Monday. The sympathy of all is with the bereaved. Day County Tribune.

Both died 15 Jul 1898. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Return to Roger Mills Archives http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/rogermills/rogermills.html
