Thursday, 11 December 1879

         The family of GEO. WRIGHT, of Iosco, is certainly
       very sorely afflicted, and have the sincere sympathy
       of every one acquainted with the magnitude of their
       affliction. Diptheria has made sad havoc in Iosco,
       but nowhere so conspicious as at MR. WRIGHT'S. Last
       Friday and eight year old daughter died of this di-
       sease and was buried Sunday afternoon. Monday morn-
       ing another daughter aged 14 years died of the same
       disease and her funeral took place yesterday. At
       this writing an only son is not expected to live,
       and afflicted in the same manner as the sisters. It
       will also be remembered that MR. WRIGHT lost a daugh-
       ter 10 years of age at Fowlerville about a year ago.
       The son is the only child left.
