Obituary
DIED In this village on the 25th July, inst. Laura Ann, daughter of Theodore and Marie Ann Rodolf, aged 4 years and 6 months. Suddenly and unexpected, sweet child, has thou been called away from the midst of thy loving and fond parents and family. A few short hours have sufficed to destroy the pride of they parents, and with thee lie buried in they little grave, some of their brightest dreams of futurity. Thy sweet temper - thy lively disposition, and they loveliness, made friends of all who knew thee, and their sincere regrets have followed thee to thy last earthly home. Thou hast gone in all they purity, spotless as the lily of the valley, to swell the number of the little angels around the throne of the Almighty, where all those who love thee hope to see thee again. Let this hope be the consolation of thy afflicted parents. Let them be satisfied that thou now enjoyest eternal bliss, freed forever from all the deceits, the pains and troubles of this world; and may thy sisters and thy brothers, in the hours of trial, remember that their conduct must be pure, so as to be found worthy to be reunited to thee. Till then, adieu! J. R. Mineral Point Tribune July 7, 1851
