A very sudden death occurred in Des Moines township last Sunday. Mrs. George Black, one of the oldest settlers in the township, sank down on the ground while walking about in the yard of a neighbor, Mr. Jerry Larkson's and in a few moments afterwards was a corpse. She was about fifty-six old, and while her health has not been good for some years, yet within the last few weeks it has been much better, and it was hoped she might recover. Her death was a very severe blow to Mr. Black. The funeral occurred Monday and was one of the largest ones in that section for years.
