  • Notes 
    • Died, in Fleming county, near here, Sept. 21, of typhoid fever, Miss Rebekah Kissick, aged 20 years. She was the youngest daughter of the late Henry Kissick, who died only three weeks before the summons came for Bekah to come up higher. “My soul longeth, yea even panteth, for the courts of the Lords.” She was a member of the Church of Christ and will be sadly missed at our meetings. We can truly say
      Dearest sister, thou has left us:
      Here thy loss we deeply feel;
      But it is God who has bereft us;
      He can all our sorrows heal.
      Owingsville Outlook, Owingsville, Kentucky. Thursday, 6 October 1898.

      Peculiar – When there was so much typhoid fever in town last year it was remarked as a strange fact that all of the cases were those of residents of the south side of the thoroughfares Main, Sudduth and High streets. This year all of the numerous cases are situated on the north side of the same streets.
