ter school closed. Her death was a
shock to everybody, and especially to
her family who live on the Stephens’
farm, they not knowing she was se
riously ill. A message came Thurs
day that she was sick and Miss Hettie
Koenig left immediately for her bed
side, arriving there just a short while
before her death, which occurred at
11:30 last night. The body will be
brought to Newport tonight and car
ried to the T. S. Stephens home on
Main street, where the funeral will
be held Sunday afternoon. The cause
of her death is reported to have been
St. Vitus dance.
Susie Koenig was 18 years old and
a very deserving girl. She was an
unusually bright girl in school, hav
ing won the loving cup for the High
school in the spring contest, in the
reading contest, being especially tal
ented in that part of her studies.
Her death is especially sad, in that
her father died only a few weeks
ago. The bereft mother, several sis
ters and a brother have the deepest
sympathy of their many friends in
this great sorrow. *
Funeral services will be held at
the residence of T. S. Stephens to
morrow morning at 9:30 o’clock.
