Poole, aged 19 years, 4 months and 7 days. The funeral will take place today. Services at the ME. church at 1:30 P.M. Death, no matter under what guise it comes, is an unwelcome visitor, and when it enters a community and wrests therefrom youth and beauty, it seems doubly sad and casts a shadow that seems dark indeed. Mrs. Poole, so well and favorably known in this section as Miss Minnie, twin sister of Miss Mate Updegraff, was of a bright vivacious temperament, always looking on the bright side and making friende of all she met. In the year 1873, in company with her parents, brothers and sisters, she came to Medicine Lodge and has since resided here, participating in all thee hardships and trials of frontier life, yet like the gold from the refiner's hands, she grew up to be a handsome, refined and accomplished young lady. On the 9th day of September, 1884, she was united in holy wedlock to O.P.Poole, and the marriage proved to be a very happy one, each one fairly idolizing the other. Thus is our frail hold on life demonstrated, and the saying that "Death is no respecter of persons," verified. The happy bride of only a few short months ago is taken and the aged are left to mourn their loss. Soon will the springtime bring into life the buds and flowers, but where once was wont to be life and joy and the sound of rippling laughter, there will be nothing but sighs and tears. As the bright flowers fade in all their purity, so has the young life gone out. But why should mortals sigh when such beautiful promises are made by immortality.
