Barbara Virginia HARTLEY, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh [Josephus and Nina "Fern" (CARTER)] HARTLEY, was born August 23, 1927, and died Sunday, February 19, 1928, aged 5 months and 26 days.

While never very strong her death was a severe shock to the parents. While this little soul returns to God who gave it, unscathed and unspotted by its short conflict in this sinful world, it leaves behind without detracting from its own brightness, a path of light that will ever serve as a guide to those with whom it came in touch.

Besides the parents she leaves two brothers, John Day and [Hugh] Keenan, and other relatives to mourn her untimely death.

The bereaved family have the sympathy of all in this sad hour of their bereavement.

Funeral services were held at the home Tuesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. C. Max BUCK, and the little one was laid to rest in Rose Hill cemetery [Blockton, Taylor County, Iowa.]
