A Sudden Call
The sad news was flashed over the wires from Batavia, Ill., on Saturday night to friends here of the death of Lillian, the only daughter of Mr and Mrs David Sutherland. The only particulars given were that brain trouble was the cause of death, and that the funeral would take place on Tuesday afternoon. The end must have come very suddenly as a letter written on Thursday stated that though she had not been as well as usual she was at school that day. Mrs McDonald, (Mrs Sutherland's mother) and Messrs Peter and Alex left by the Sunday night train for Batavia. Little Lillian, was a bright and winsome child of a disposition so loveable that though only a child of tender years she had won her way into many a heart that will be saddened to learn of her death.
