43Kerns, HenryMr. Henry Kerns, of Green Township, of whose serious illness we made mention last week, died Thursday night. He was about 76 years old. His disease at first was of the heart, but the immediate cause of his death was hemorrhage of the bowels. He leaves a widow and four children. He was a good natured kind man, and probably without an enemy in the world. He was always a resident of this county, and the good name he leaves behind makes him loss keenly felt by all.
