Miss Maggie Rose Dead.



"Miss Maggie, the seventeen year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Rose,
of Paris, who has visited her sister, Mrs. Phil. Hales, quite frequently
since the latter's residence here, and therefore well known to our
readers, died at her home in Paris, last Friday, after suffering the
most excruciating pains from that terrible disease, spinal meningitis.
Early in the spring Miss Maggie came up from Paris to spend the summer
(with) her sister in Madison, but (upon) learning of her little
brother's dangerous illness with spinal meningitis, she determined to
(unknown) and nurse the little fellow and (for) days and weeks, she was
constantly in attendance upon the little boy, and it is thought that
through her frequent caresses of the little one and inhaling its
diseased expirations, she contracted the disease which resulted in her
death.

She was buried at Paris Sunday and quite a number of sorrowing friends
from Madison attended the funeral and burial, attesting strongly to the
high esteem in which she was held here."



"A precious one from us has gone,

A voice we loved is stilled,

A place is vacant in our home,

Which never can be filled.



God in His wisdom has recalled

The boon His love had given,

And though the body slumbers now,

The soul is safe in heaven."
