Obituary- Hopkins, Emma

Emma Bertha Hopkins, the four year old child of Mr. and Mrs. Ira Hopkins, died Friday morning Mar. 4, 1904. The funeral services were conducted at the home, Saturday at 1:30 p.m. by Rev. Clyde L. Kuhn.

The little girl was taken sick with appendicitis about a week before her death. Though every effort was made to save her life, all was in vain, and at 6 o'clock Friday morning, with the severest pain and suffering, the little life went out in death.

This is twice that the death angel has come into this home. And each time a little girl with her sunshine and innocent has been taken to her heavenly home. Though the hearts of the father and mother are torn with sorrow and grief, yet God who doth all things well sustains them.

To that alwise and merciful Providence, the friends and relatives of the bereaved commend them.
