Death of Mary Killoran. -The Gode- rich. Star of last week makes the following reference to the death of Mary Killoran, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Killoran, of Goderich, and formerly of Seaforth: Seldom are the sympathies of the people of the- town so stirred as they have been the past week by the .death of . three little children who were the brightness of the homes of their now bereaved parents, Mr. and Mrs. James L. Kil- loran and Mr. and Mrs. M. W. Howell. The children had been playing to- gether and the infection apparently came from the same source. Little Mary Elizabeth Kathleen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Killoran, aged six years and seven months was the first to succumb to the disease diptheria, her death taking place last Friday in To- ronto. The previous week end Mr. Killoran had occasion to make a bus- iness trip to Toronto, and took his Little daughter with him to visit her cousins. On the way clown on the train she was not very well, but her indisposition was supposed to be due to something she had eaten which did not agree with her, and on Saturday morning the little one seemed much better and Mr. Killoran phoned to his wife here to that effect but suggested that she go down to Toronto for the week end. The following day, Sun- day, the little girl was ill and the doctor pronounced the trouble diph- theria, and anti -toxin was administered on Sunday and Monday. A specialist on diptheria was called , in: but all efforts to save the child's life, how- ever, failed, and on Thursday paralysis of the heart set in and on Friday the little one passed away. Mr. and Mrs. Killoran sorrowfully returned with the remains of their dear one on Saturday morning and the fur era1 took place from the station to the cemetery. Messrs. Charles Garrow, Jas. J. Doyle, H. J. D, Cooke, M. G. Cameron, Dr. A. C. Hunter and Ter- ence Kidd acted as pallbearers, and at the graveside -Rev. Father McRae read a children's funeral service. Little Mary Killoran was a particular- ly winsome child, the joy of her par- ent's hearts and a favorite with the many about town who learned to know her and to love her, and the sympathy of the townspeople goes out to Mr. and Mrs. Killoran, in their sorrow and to the little brother of three years old.
