Mrs. Rachel Dorn died May 20 after an illness of ten days, and most of which time she was an intense sufferer. She was in her sixty-fifth year. She was the wife of Mr. Elbert Dorn, and had reared a large family, six daughters and four sons, and all living but one son and one daughter. They are all married but one son, Mr. Earl Dorn. All the children were present at her death. She was a devoted wife, an affectionate mother and an earnest Christian woman. She united with the Red Oak Grove Baptist church when quite young. Died as she had lived, trusting in her Saviour. Mr. Dorn is left alone, except a single son and three little granddaughters, the oldest of which is twelve years old. Our hearts go out in deepest sympathy for him. The neighbors were exceedingly kind during Mrs. Dorns entire sickness, for which the family desire to extend their highest and most sincere appreciation.
