Mr. C. J. Mitchell received the sad intelligence by telegram last evening from his son, Dr. George Mitchell, who resides at Richland Center, that his wife was dead. It is needless for us to state that Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell started on the first train possible to be with their son in his sad bereavement. It is thought that the death must have occured very suddenly as the parents had never been warned of the sickness.
