  • Notes 
    • A gloom was cast over this community by the a most sudden death of Albert, son of the late John Williams. The boy, who was in his fifteenth year, had not been well for some time, but nothing serious was anticipated up to the day on which he died. A sudden change in his condition revealed that the end was near, and at eleven o'clock on Tuesday night, April 1st, his young spirit winged its flight to the world beyond. Bert was a particularly bright and clever boy, his winning manner making him a favorite of all with whom he came in contact. The funeral took place on Thursday to the cemetery here, the pupils of the public school marching in procession. After the burial, a memorial service was conducted by Rev. Mr. Monsinger in the Methodist church.
