>>>Friday, 25 Aug 1916--PAULINE LESSLY--"She came to raise our hearts to heaven; She goes to call us there." Just a little more than a year ago the Lord gave into the keeping of Mr. and Mrs. George E. Lessly twin babies, a beautiful little boy and girl, who were promptly named Paul and Pauline, respectively, and all the friends and relatives of this estimable family rejoiced with them in their good fortune.  However, the Lord could not see fit to let them keep both babies, so last Thursday, Aug. 17, 1916, He called little Pauline home to be with Him in heaven.<<<< This was the daughter of George E. Lessly and Willa Mae Daggs. She was born July 7, 1915 (as previously noted in the Higbee News). She and her brother were the 9th and 10th children born to George and Willa. I had hoped to find the cause of her death in the obit but no luck this time. >>Friday, 25 Aug 1916--LESSLY-ORTON--Mr. Jas. Lessly and Miss Pearl Orton, two popular young people of this place, stole a march on their friends last week when they were married in Fayette on the 18th, but by whom we could not learn. Mr. Lessly is the son of Joseph Lessly, Jr., and wife, and is a hard working and<<< I believe this is James W. Lessley (The News has the surname spelled wrong) son of Joseph F. Lessley and Leona Short. Joseph F. was the son of Joseph Lessley and Messaline Johnson. James was born Jun 26, 1895 and died 1971. Carole
