In Memoriam.
Olathe, Kas., April 29, 1886. To-day witnessed one of the most largely attended funerals which has occurred in this city for some time, and one of the sadest deaths a young lady. Miss Minnie Daniels, aged eighteen years, two months and twenty-three days. Bright and beloved by all who knew her, but a few days more, had she been allowed her health, and her parents and friends would have greeted her smiling face as she would have been called to the platform of the Olathe High School to present her graduating address, with the highest honors. The flowers that would have been presented to her at her graduation are to-day entwined within a wreath of mourning placed there by her young friends. In death as in life she still looked sweet, dressed in a handsome white cashmere, trimmed with satin ribbon, and encased in a beautiful rosewood coffin nicely trimmed. Her gentle manners and kind words will long be remembered. She is in death, yet her spirit will enjoy eternal life. No more toil with books and pen but at rest with the Savior in heaven. What an impressive lesson!
