    • DEATH OF SYVILLA H. ZIMMERMAN.

      It becomes our sad duty this week to chronicle the death of Miss Syvilla H. Zimmerman, daughter of the late Henry Zimmerman, which took place at the residence of her mother, Herbert St., on Wednesday, September 26th, at 1.30 o'clock, p. m., at the age of 23 years, 8 months, and 10 days. Deceased had been ailing for some time and her death was not entirely unexpected. About a year ago she contracted a cold which finally turned into that dreaded disease, consumption.

      She was a consistent member of the Lutheran church, a faithful member of the choir and a teacher in the Sunday school. A loving mother, one brother and nine sisters are left to mourn their loss. The family has the sympathy of the community in their bereavement. The funeral will take place from the residedce on Friday at 2 o'clock p.m. to St. John's Lutheran church for service thence to Mount Hope cemetery for interment.
