We are glad to report that the diphtheria is not so bad as it was at our last writing. There are no new cases except that of Mrs. Geo. Adams' child. She is improving rapidly, Miss Ida and Ella Kearney are both better.
Little Vina Mead and Lillie (sic) Adams were both buried in the same grave in the Luverne cemetery on Tuesday Feb 9, at four o'clock pm. Owing to the disease being so contagious, friends of the family were not permitted to attest their friendship as they would otherwise have done. Nevertheless, Mr and Mrs Adams have the sympathy of the entire country.
