September 17th, at ten minutes past twelve in the morning the Angel of Death entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Dunnick and took from them their youngest daughter, Maggie Belle, aged twenty three years, six months and six days.

September 16th, Drs. Williams, Carlile, and McKenna met at her home, at her request to remove a tumor with which she was afflicted. The operation proved successful and she awoke bright and cheerful and for a few hours she seemed to be getting along nicely, but at six o'clock she became worse and her suffering was terrible and at ten minutes past twelve she died, her death being caused by kidney trouble. The doctors did all in their power to save her, of which the family feels certain. Dr. Williams and Carlile stayed with her until the end.

Maggie Belle Dunnick was born in Jasper County Iowa, March 11, 1881, came to Audubon County March 1, 1882, where she lived until January 6, 1904, when she moved to Manning with her parents and lived here until the time of her death. Shortly after she came to town she became a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and Epworth league. She was a faithful worker in the church, always ready to do all she could. She was a devoted daughter to her parents, by whom she will be sadly missed. She was buried by the, Rebekah lodge of which she was a member. The funeral was held at the Methodist Church Sunday at

two o'clock, Rev. Bennett assisted by Rev. Giffen preached the funeral sermon after which the remains, followed by a large number of friends, was taken to the Manning Cemetery where she was laid to rest.

Maggie will be greatly missed in her home, in church, and by her relatives and friends as she always met everyone with a pleasant face and cheerful word; and her sudden death was a great surprise to all. She leaves a father, mother, three sisters and five brothers to mourn her loss. All were at the bedside when death claimed her except her sister, Mrs. Elmer Dyar, and two brothers Edward and Peter who were unable to get here but were here for the funeral.

We have lost our darling daughter
She has bid us all adieu
She has gone to live in heaven,
And her person is lost to view.
Oh, that darling how we loved her,
Oh, how hard to give her up;
But an angel came down for her
And removed her from our flock.
Farewell daughter, but riot forever,
There will be a glorious dawn,
We shall meet to part, no never,
On the resurrection morn.
Though thy darling form lies sleeping,
In the cold and silent tomb,
Thou shall have a glorious waking
When the blessed Lord doth come.
Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are o'er.
On the border land we left her.
Soon to meet and part no more.
When we leave this world of changes,
When we leave this world of care,
We shall find our missing loved one,
In our Father's mansion fair.
Weep not that her toils are over,
Weep not that her race is run,
God grant we may rest as calmly
When our work, like hers, is done.
'Til then we yield with gladness
One daughter to him to keep,
And rejoice in the sweet assurance,
He giveth His loved one sleep.

CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our heartfelt thanks to the many friends and neighbors and the Rebekah and Odd Fellow lodges for, their help and kindness during the illness and death of our daughter Maggie. We also wish to thank the Epworth League and the Rebekah lodge for their floral gifts.
Mr. and Mrs. C. Dunnick.
