Edna May, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Dougherty,
died Nov. 10, of pneumonia fever at the family residence, two miles
west of town. The little one was sick only a few days,
and was not thought to be in a critical condition until a few hours
before the end came. She
was only a few months old. Like
a beam of light she came into the home for a brief moment and filled
the hearts of her parents with gladness and then went back to be with
God forever. Her presence in the home was like the
rustle of an angel's wing, and now that she is gone heaven is dearer
and more real to those who are left behind. A short service was held at the home, conducted by Rev. S. E.
Henry, and the little body was taken by loving hands and buried in the
Titus cemetery.
