East Carthage.

Nov. 14. -- Died, at her parents home in E. C., a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Yetter, Mrs. Clara Sowers.  Her age was probably 35; her home was in Kansas since her marriage, but returned to her parents this fall on her first visit with her three children.  In a few weeks she took the typhoid fever.  Her husband, Wm. Sowers, was sent for, and on Saturday morning of last week she passed away, leaving the husband and three children to mourn her loss.  The funeral was held Sunday afternoon at the Franklin school house; burial at the Franklin cemetery.  The oldest daughter of the deceased mother and Wm. Sowers and Frank Yetter, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Sam. Yetter, are quite ill with typhoid fever.  We are in hopes of their speedy recovery.
