==============================
OBITUARY.
Again the angel of death has crossed the threshold of a home. Sarah C. Vanarsdall, daughter of Cornelius and Mary Ann Vanarsdall, was born in Johnson County, Ind., April 9, 1868, and passed peacefully away May 14, 1897. Sadie, as she was better known, was a most dutiful daughter and a kind and loving sister. Although a constant sufferer for five months, she endured the pain bravely and patiently. She ever took a deep interest in every member of the family and her friends. Only kind words dropped from her lips. She always greeted one with a pleasant smile and ever had a word of sympathy and love. Although her sojourn with us has been short, yet she has endeared herself to all.
