Miss Toland, who was in the 13th, year of her age, died last night of pneumonia, at St. Mary's Seminary, near Terre Haute, Ind., which institution she entered last fall. The deceased was a bright and promising young girl, and during her brief illness of about two weeks, was attended by her mother who is now bereft of her only child. The body will arrive in Decatur from St. Mary's this (Thursday) evening. The arrangement is that the funeral will take place from the residence of Mr. D.S. Shellabarger, at 2 o'clock to-morrow afternoon.
