Nina R. Booher, daughter of A. W. and Mariam Booher, died April 5th, 1894, aged 13 years, 2 months and 15 days. Nina possessed a gentle and lovable spirit. Her life was pure, her language was always chaste, and her words were those of kindness to all with whom she met. She was bright in her studies, very industrious in her books and stood at the head of her classes. She was chosen as a delegate from her department of the city schools of Crawfordsville to the Columbian Exposition and was a favorite of her teachers.  A light has gone out of the home and a farewell from parents, brothers, and sisters and friends. While the cloud of sorrow overshadows us, there is a light beyond, in the hope that our loved one hath gone to inhabit a mansion in our Father’s house.  The funeral service was held at the Christian Church at Darlington, conducted by Rev. F. P. Trotter, April 6, 1894. – thanks so much to “S” – one great typist
