    3. DEATHS... There is a difference in these deaths. This is a official reporting by the newspaper and each week they evidently had a column for deaths. (I just found them..didn't know they existed) In these they give the name exact date of death and usually age, and cause of death, and usually locale. I know there are duplicates in this to the death notices I've already sent but---most are not and in this case you'd have exact date. .instead of "Monday last." the date of issue of newspaper will be top line. Surnames will be in caps. Most of these will be surnames followed by month and day, then first name and so forth. For two weeks ending Dec 8, 1883, 13 Dec 1883 Issue MULLENIX--Nov. 1st, Lee Mullenix of Elm of consumption, aged 33 (this was blurred and hard to read) 27days. MOWRER--Nov. 17th. infant son of Ezra and mary Mowrer, of Union township. HUSTON--Nov. 21, Catherine Huston of Wilson, burned to death, aged 39 yrs. THOMPSON--Nov. 21, infant son of Mr. & Mrs A.W. Thompson of Lincoln.
