DIED: Cora Skinner

Cora Skinner, the 17-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. N. Skinner, died at the home of her parents on Sunday morning. The cause of her death was quick consumption, which she contracted last winter. For the past four months she has been bedfast, and the end was expected when it at last came after months of suffering. The funeral was held on Monday from the home of Mr. and Mrs. Skinner, Rev. J. M. Haskell, of the Christian church, conducting the services. The interment took place in the Washington Lawn cemetery.

Cora Skinner was born on April 6, 1888, and has lived most of her life in Centralia.
