Mrs. and Mrs. C. Beitler returned the latter part of this week from St. John, where they had been called to attend the funeral of Mrs. Beitler's sister, Mrs. Cora Hagerman. Burial was made on Sunday. Mrs. Hagerman had been sick for about two months, her ailment having been cancer of the liver. She had lived on a farm near St. John since 1878. Her age was about 55 years. Mrs. Beitler had been with her sister for about a month, and had returned last week for a brief stay at home, and while here word came that her sister was worse, hence Mr. and Mrs. Beitler hurried back to St. John, but arrived too late to see Mrs. Hagerman alive.
