LULA REECE DEAD.

Lula May Reece, daughter of Mr. And Mrs. C.O. Reece, died at the home in this city early Sunday morning. The young lady had been ill for a long time with kidney disease and death was a welcome relief from all pain and suffering. She was an unusually bright and attractive girl, and was a favorite with the family and a host of acquaintances. For a year past her case was considered hopeless, but through all her illness she was cheerful, patient and thoughtful of others. Lula May Reece was born in Morton County, Kans., May 16, 1886, and with the family has been a resident of this city long enough to become endeared to many of our people, who deplore her death, at an age when life seemed so full of promise. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Nickle of the Methodist Church, and a large circle of friends met to pay their last respects to one they had loved so well. Mr. And Mrs. Reece have the sympathy of their many friends in their bereavement.
