Broughton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Broughton, died at the home of her parents, about three miles east of Albany, Sunday morning, May 3, 1891 after an illness of only a few days. The cause of her death was a malignant form of la grippe. All that lay in mortal power was done to check the dread disease but in vain. Dora was an unusually bright and amiable girl, an only daughter and the idol of her parents' and her brother's hearts. It is said that the "King of Shadows loves a shining mark". How true in this instance? In her 17th year, with every prospect for a happy life, what can we say to comfort the afflicted ones who loved her so dearly? The funeral was held at the M.E. Church in this village Tuesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. W.W. Stevens, assisted by Rev. H.A. Rogers and was attended by a vast concourse of relatives and sympathizing friends, and the remains tenderly laid at rest in the village cemetery. The deepest sympany of the entire community is felt for the sorely bereaved family.
