---DIED---
On Monday, April 16, at 11 o'clock a. m., in Blaine, at the home of his parents, of typhoid fever, Samuel BERTRAND, aged 22 years and 8 months.
Samuel BERTRANN (sic) was born in Chilliwhack, British Columbia, August 22, 1865. He was the third son of J. C. and M. A. BERTRAND. At the age of six years he removed to the fine section of country twelve miles east of here known as Bertrand prairie. After residing there for fifteen years he came to Blaine, where he has since lived, until called away last Monday. Many people in Blaine and Lynden will be sad when they hear of the cutting down of the happy dispositioned young man just as he was entering upon the field of life, but still many will feel a satisfaction in knowing that if there is any comfort to the human soul in the religion of Christ he had it. He was buried on Tuesday, at 2 p. m. The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. B. H. GRIGGS, of Lynden, from First Corinthians, xv, 19.
