Death came to us again Monday night at half past 12 o'clock, April 9 (10th) and removed from our midst Andrew Hardisty, and a little step-daughter, Mary Evaline Carmichael, at 3 o'clock the same night. Mr. Hardisty took sick Friday of last week but was not serious enough to call a physician till Monday. On Monday morning the little girl complained of a headache, and as day passed into night she grew worse and she passed away at 3 o'clock. Drs. Cravens and Mason pronounced it spinal meningetis. Mr. Hardisty had the same disease. Authority claims it is contagious, and quite a number of people were exposed before the ailment was learned. We do not know what the outcome will be but are hoping for the best.

Epidemic Causes Alarm
An epidemic of meningitis, sometimes called spotted fever, has broken out in the neighborhood of Little Cincinnati. Thus far the disease has caused two deaths, both in the same family. The two deaths occurred last week when Andy Hardisty and his step-daughter Evelyn Carmichael died within a few days after becoming ill of the disease.
