Information: SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. L. F. SAYRE Mrs. L. F. Sayre, of near Evans, died very suddenly at 9 o'clock Thursday night of last week. She had been confined to her bed for twelve days from nervous prostration, but no immediate danger was feared. She had just taken medicine from the hands of her husband, to whom she had given directions to place medicine within her reach, that she might take if she felt it was needed any time in the night, dropped into an apparent sleep that alarmed Mr. Sayre, who communicated his fears to members of his family, and in a few minutes she passed away. Interment took place at Otterbein, Saturday afternoon, after services in the church by Rev. E. D. W. King. Mrs. Sayre was 55 years old, daughter of the late William Lewis, joined the M. E. church in early life and was a consistent member to the time of her death. A husband and eight children--seven sons and a daughter--have the profound sympathy of all. Nancy Helen Lewis born April 29, 1845
