A Young Life Ended
Laura E. Marshall, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. K. Marshall, of East Main Street, after four long months of intense and patient suffering from catarrh of the stomach and inflammatory rheumatism, peacefully passed in the Beulah Land of eternal joy and gladness at 6:00 A. M. Tuesday, March 16th. Laura had been a sufferer for months before she was compelled to take to her bed, which she did four months ago
last Saturday. She was born October 25th, 1874, and was, therefore, twenty-two years, four months and nineteen days old when the silken thread of life was broken.
Funeral services will be held in the M. E. Church, of which she was a member, at 3:00 P. M. Thursday, conducted by Rev. J. W. Crawford, pastor. Her mortal remains will be buried in the Reynoldsville cemetery. The deceased was a member of the Epworth League and had a host of friends.
Friends and relatives from Bradford, DuBois, Brookville and Parker will attend the funeral. Frank Marshall, brother of the deceased, who is located at Daubing, (sic; Dobbin) West Virginia, will be home in time to follow the remains of his sister to the silent city of the dead.

A Large Funeral: The funeral services over the remains of Miss Laura Eva Marshall were held in the M. E. Church last Thursday afternoon. The church was not large enough to accommodate the crowd that attended, notwith- standing the inclement weather. The deceased was dressed all in white, resting in a cream-colored casket. There was a display of beautiful cut flowers which were presented by the Epworth League, of which she was a member, and other young friends.
Card of Thanks: We wish to return our grateful thanks to friends and neighbors who assisted us during the long illness and death of our daughter Laura. MR. AND MRS. W. K. MARSHALL
