"Undertaker Konantz went down to Hiattville early this morning to prepare the body of Mrs. Nellie McClelland, aged 18, who died at that place last night of measles, for burial. Mrs. McClelland is a bride of only a couple of months and has been ill nearly every since her marriage. She contracted the measles and though her husband and friends did all in their power to save her life, they failed and she died after suffering greatly. The funeral services are to be held tomorrow morning at 10:30 o'clock, at her late home. Rev. A. E. Martin of the Baptist church of this city will officiate. Interment will be made at the Hiattville cemetery."
