-----
Victim of Diptheria.
-----

       Kearby, the eight-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. W. P. A. Sloan, died Sunday morning at 1 o'clock after an illness of a month with diphtheria.
       The remains were conveyed to Moody Sunday night for interment in the family burial ground.
       The death is peculiarly sad, this being the only child, and the parents have the sympathy of all.
