Obituary.--Mrs. Joseph Burt answered the summons of death last Monday night, after a very short illness of a little over twenty-four hours. The funeral service were conducted by Rev. D.W. Curtis at the residence, and the remains were interred in the Eller cemetery southeast of town.

Deceased's maiden name was Emily Day. She was born August 7th, 1835 in Athens Co., Ohio. She was 57 years, 8 months, and 27 days old at her death. She was married to Joseph Burt March 4th, 1854. With her husband she moved to Nebraska at an early date, where they endured the hardships peculiar to pioneer life. She was always faithful in her duties as mother of an excellent family, and as wife of a noble husband. She has been a patient sufferer from a permanent disease of the liver for the last eight years. Sunday evening about four o'clock she had a very severe attack of her ailment and by eight o'clock she was unconscious until the hour of her death. Medical skill seemed of no avail. Only suffering for twenty-four hours her death was unexpected by her many friends and neighbors. Their loss as a friend and as a neighbor, and the grief stricken family's loss of a wife and loving mother, is only her gain of an eternal home in heaven.
