Death of Mrs. Earl Close

Monday afternoon news was received in Arlington that Mrs. Earl Close had died in an Omaha hospital at 1 o'clock that afternoon, from the effects of an operation that had been performed on Sunday. The remains were brought to Arlington Tuesday, and the funeral will be held today (Thursday), the interment taking place in the Arlington cemetery.

Mrs. Close was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hullinger, who reside near the Lone Tree school house south of town, in Dodge county. She was 23 years old, and two years ago was wedded to Earl Close. Besides the sorrowing husband, she leaves a father and mother, seven brothers and one sister to mourn her untimely death.

She was born in Illinois, but has resided in this vicinity for a number of years, and was very popular among a large circle of acquaintances, who will unite with the Review-Herald in extending condolence to the stricken husband and family.
