Miss Ruth RIDER died of typhoid fever at Sallisaw last Wednesday.
She was visiting relatives at that place and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Tom RIDER, knew nothing of her illness until the sad message came that she was dead.
For some reason the letters that had been sent informing them of their daughter's illness had not been received.
Thursday morning Mr. RIDER went to Sallisaw and brought the body home, where it was interred Friday in the Oak Grove Cemetery, Rev. J.L. BROWN conducting the ceremonies.
It was a sad, sad death, for Miss Ruth was young, beautiful and loved by a large circle of relatives and friends. The sympathy of our people goes out to the family in their sad loss.
