Sudden Death

  Mr. Geo. Weaver, living about 12 miles north of Fairfield, had the misfortune
to lose, by death, his son, aged about 18 years old. The young man ate supper 
Monday night and shortly after complained of pains in his head. He lay down, and 
when noticed a few minutes later, was found to be dead.

Young Locals
Feb. 5  
   Mr. Derly Weaver, son of Mr. Geo. Weaver, died on the 30th of January. His 
death was very sudden.  He was a nice clever boy, well thought of by everyone.
We will miss our dear young friend, but when God speaks for us to come, we have 
to lay down everything and go.  We trust that our beloved friend is at peace, 
and that his people will prepare to meet him with God.
