              Obituary - Much interest was felt in this
            city in the case of JOHN BYRAM, who was sick
            with peritonitis. He was supposed, as late
            as New Year's morning to be mending, if not
            out of danger, but unfavorable symptoms set
            in that day and he died on Friday morning,
            Jan. 2d. He was in his 20th year. He had
            been for a long time employed in the in-
            surance office of Kimball & Libbey and fre-
            quently evenings in the post office. He
            was a young man of good habits and general-
            ly well liked. He gave promise of a manhood
            of sturdy integrity and usefulness. His
            parents, Mr. and Mrs. GEORGE BYRUM and his
            brothers and sisters, have general sympathy
            in their bereavement.
              The funeral took place from the Presby-
            terian church on Sunday afternoon. Rev.
            Mr. WHITE, who officiated, paid a fitting
            tribute to his memory. The high school
            class of 1884 contributed a floral wreath
            and the Presbyterian Sabbath school class
            of which he was a member, a star and cres-
            cent, beside other floral gifts from
            friends. Messrs. A. W. KIMBALL, J. N. WARD,
            FRED. HANSON, WILL. CHAPMAN, HENRY BONG
            and FRED. HANCOCK officiated as pall-
            bearers. The remains were taken to Stevens
            Point on Monday for burial.
