Miss Anna DeMoss of Columbia township, died April 4, aged 17 years, of dropsy. She had been sick only a few days, and was considered not very dangerous, but took worse very suddenly in the evening and died at 10 o'clock that night.

Her funeral took place the next day at 2 P.M., at Pleasant View church, and was attended by a large number of relatives and friends. The sermon was preached by the Reverend Cornelius, of Camp Point, from the words, "Man dieth and wasteth away; yea giveth up the ghost, and where is he?"

Anna was a member of the Baptist church, having joined it in her 15th year, and has lived a consistent Christian life ever since. She leaves a large number of mourners, who have the sympathy of the entire community.
