Bairdsville (Victoria Co.) May 12 - The cruel hand of death has wrought havoc in the home of Charles WOLVERTON, robbing him recently of three children.

The funeral service was conducted by Rev. G.A. Giberson at Clear View Hall. The pall bearers were Benj. BULL, Harry ARMSTRONG, Willie H. BAIRD and Frank MILLER.
