Three of a Family Dead in Less Than a Week and Another Dying
The family of Mr. George Hepburn, on F street southwest, has been fearfully depleted in the last few days and his many friends deeply sympathize with him in his affliction. On Wednesday last one of his children, Ettie, aged 19, died of consumption, and was buried on Friday last; on Saturday another daughter, Carrie, aged 17, died of the same disease; and yesterday the mother died also of consumption. A third child a son about 21 years of age is now lying ill, also of consumption, and there are but little hopes of his recovery. The funeral of the second child and mother will take place tomorrow afternoon.
