AT THE GRAVE
Both Mother and Child Dead.
A sad affliction came to the home of Gilbert McCoy, of Caldwell township, this morning. His wife died at 2 a. m. of consumption and one hour later their sweet little 6-months old babe passed away. The cause of the child's death was spasms. The double funeral will be held from the home tomorrow and the mother and child will be buried side by side in the same casket.
