Obituary

Died, in this city, on the 8th instant, MARY ELIZABETH, youngest daughter of W. N. and S. R. Staples, age two years and eleven days. Also, on 19th inst., JOSEPH DOUGLAS, their eldest son, aged five years and one month. We extend our heart-felt sympathy to the afflicted parents in their bereavement. Although separated from their little ones for a while, they have the consolation that a glorious reunion awaits them in that bright world where sickness, pain and sorrow are unknown.
