DIED -- In Dyersburg, September 17, 1873, Nellie, infant daughter of J. A. & Ella HUMES, aged nine months and three days. "Sleep on dear Nellie, thou hast gone to rest, Thy span of life, tho' short, was blest; Autumn,with her dewy fingers cold, Will deck thy hallowed mould - By Fairy hands, they knew is rung, By forms unseen, thy dirge is sung."
