The death angel yesterday morning entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Medlar and bore away their heart's idol—their only daughter little Mary Louise, about three and a half years old. Though naturally delicate, she had been in about her usual health up to Tuesday evening, when she had an attack of croup, or some similar disease, when a physician was called and prescribed for her; at that time her condition was not thought critical, but later she suddenly became worse and passed away as above noted. Thus in a moment, as it were, the light of the home went out. Mr. and Mrs. Medlar have the utmost sympathy of many friends.
