Died of Diphtheria.

  George L. Brisbin, son of Lawrence and Mary Brisbin, corner of 
Twenty-first street and Columbia avenue, died of diphtheria Tuesday 
morning at 9.30.  Born at Unionville, Centre county, June 25, 1899, he 
would soon have been five years old.  He had taken ill with grip, and 
on Monday it developed into diptheria.  The funeral was held Wednesday 
at Unionville.  There yet survive to mourn their loss,his father and 
mother; four brothers, Guyer, Homer, William and Samuel; and three 
sisters, Agnes, Flora and Margaret.  He was a bright, intelligent 
little boy. 

  A precious one from us has gone,
    A voice we loved is stilled,  
  A place is vacant in our home,
    Which never can be filled.
  God in his wisdom has recalled,
    The boon his love had given, 
  And though the body moulders here,
    The soul is safe in Heaven.
