A Correction
In its notice Monday evening of the death of the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Harding, of Court and 21st street, The Journal was misinformed. It was Edith and not Pearle whose sad death occurred. In the death of their bright and winsome daughter, Mr. Harding and family have the sympathy of the community in thier bereavement.
