The secret of the determined couple had been confined to a few who executed their work well. It is supposed that the elopers were driven to Campbell by Cad Hazel and there took the train for Cairo where they will be married. The romance is said to be painful to the mother of Miss Green, Mrs. J. W. Newby, and the other relatives. We wish the young couple the best of life's pleasures and happiness--Kennett Clipper. 4 Oct 1890--Mr. and Mrs. W. H. McKeirnan, who moved here from Moberly a little less than a year ago, are just now undergoing an ordeal that would cause the strongest to bend low beneath the crushing weight of deep and poignant sorrow. About ten days ago their baby son, Willie, was taken down with inflammation of the bowels and stomach, and very soon his spirit took its flight to Him who gave it. A little later their bright little daughter, Pearl, aged 4 years, was taken with diphtheria. Good medical treatment and good nursing seemed to be getting the better of the disease in her case, but all at once the kidneys became inactive, blood poisoning set in, and on Sunday her spirit went out into the Great Unknown to join little Willie's. Two deaths in one small family in side of ten days, and only one loved one left out of three to console and comfort the bereaved parents. Mr. and Mrs. McKiernan are good, industrious people and the sympathies of our people go out to them in this their hour of great bereavement. May He who tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, bring balm to their wounded hearts--Huntsville Herald. 11 Oct 1890--Died, in Higbee, on the 5th, Willie, the 3-month-old-son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
