Sarah Elizabeth Whiteman
Mrs. Sarah E. Whiteman was born
in 1867 in Indiana, where she lived
during her girlhood days, but came to
Nebraska when a young woman. Her
maiden name was Sarah Elizabeth
Fetteruff, and she was united in mar
riage to Mr. Ephriam Tucker on Aug
ust 18, 1884. He died five years
later. Some time afterwards, she was
united in marriage to John White-
man, who passed away in 1918. Mrs.
Whiteman has resided in this county
for many years and has been a kind
and loving mother and a good citi
zen of the community. She had not
been in good health for some time.

The sympathy of the many friends of
this little girl and her parents go out
to the latter in their hour of sorrow.
Whose Gooseberries
A certain man of this vicinity has
rented ground for pasture at a cost
of $7 per month. Now it happens
that there grows on the land, besides
the grass consumed by his cattle, a
number cf gooseberry bushes. These
are a source of attraction to the boys
and girls from town who go into the
pasture and pick the berries without
asking permission or so much as even
saving "Thank you." It would seem
that the parents could do a fine thing
by instructing the lads and lassies
that the berries belong to the man
who pays rent on the pasture and
should be left unmolested.

Our Funeral
Home
IN planning our funeral home,
we desired to provide a place
where the funeral service, and
the necessary preliminaries to
it, may be conducted with the
greatest efficiency and comfort
in the quiet, dignified atmos
phere of a home.
WE believe that we have
achieved this. The use of our
mortuary is available to all our
patrons, though we, of course,
are willing to conduct the ser
vices from the church or resi
dence when so desired.
