YOUNG WOMAN DIES

Mrs. Lee Rainey, who has resided on the Hannis Grimm farm for several months, died last Friday, leaving a husband and a 3-year-old daughter.

Mr. and Mrs. Rainey have been keeping house for Hannis, and had no relatives in this section of the country. The funeral was held at the cemetery on Saturday, conducted by Rev. Lewis.

The little girl, who is an unusually winsome child, thus left without the tender care of a mother, has completely won the heart of Henry Grimm, who says he will keep her, at least for the present, as he has a housekeeper, and he cannot bear to see the little one separated from her father.

This is a sad case and all who are familiar with the circumstances deeply sympathize with the bereaved ones, and have much to say over the kind treatment accorded the father and child by the Grimm boys.
