Nov. 17. -- We have to note the death of Mrs. Ellen Perry, a daughter of the late Mrs. Burner, which occurred Tuesday evening, Nov. 11th, at her home about four miles north east of here.  Her age was about 45.  She was married in her young womanhood to Henry Perry, by whom she had three children, one of whom is dead.  Two sons, Cuy and Ashford, survive to mourn her loss.  The funeral sermon was preached at the Baptist church, in Bentley, by Elder Ausmus, of Camp Point, who officiated at the funeral of both her father and mother.  She was laid to rest in the Harmony cemetery by the side of her husband who preceded her some years ago.
