Campbell, Sarah E. (Caldwell)

The sad information was brought to this city last Saturday of the death of Mrs. S. E. Campbell, near Borden, of consumption. She was a sister of Mr. Ferd Caldwell, and was well known and universally esteemed by her many friends in this city. Her remains were interred at Osage [Osage Cemetery] Sunday, Rev. Miles performing the last sad rites.
