Died, in this city, at five oclock p.m., yesterday, Mr. Charles Lame, aged 83 years. Mr. Lame was born in Philadelphia, May 31st, 1811. He came to Cairo in 1863 and has consequently lived here 31 years. Mr. Lame was a carpenter by trade and followed his calling until the infirmities incident to old age crept upon him and rendered him unfit for hard work. His wife died some ten years ago and he has lived with his children or grandchildren since that time. He has one daughter, Mrs. E. C. Ford, who resides at Creal Springs, and we believe one son residing in Brooklyn, New York. Mr. Lame was an Odd Fellow and a member of the Methodist Church.

OBITUARY.
(Argus)
Mrs. Hanna R. Lame, who departed this life Monday evening at 6 oclock, was born in Philadelphia, Feb. 29th, 1812. In very early life she united with the Methodist church and was regarded by all of her friends as a bright and shining light in the Christian life. In 1834 she was united in marriage to Mr. Charles Lame. She was the mother of six children, two of whom survive her, Mrs. E. C. Ford, of Cairo, and William R. Lame of New York City. In 1864 Mrs. Lame removed with her family to Cairo, uniting here with the Methodist Church a short time afterwards; since then she was a consistent attendant at all the services until December a year ago, when she was stricken with the illness that resulted in her death. For fifteen months her sufferings have been great at times; at intervals she would rally and be able to be up and attend to her household duties. Her constant attendants have been her devoted husband and daughter. She also leaves a granddaughter, Miss Maud Burnett, to mourn her loss, who had been under her care since a little child, and now for the second time has lost a mother. During Mrs. Lames last hours up to Sunday at midnight, she sang her favorite hymns, repeated passages of scripture and frequently prayed for her loved ones. At 12, on Sunday night, she told her son-in-law, Mr. Ford, to sit down and rest, and then sang Jesus Lover of My Soul. She immediately became unconscious until the last, dying without a struggle, so calm that husband or daughter could not perceive the last breath.
The funeral of Mrs. Hannah Lamb occurred yesterday afternoon. The remains were taken from the residence on Tenth Street, to the Methodist church, where Rev. Scarritt held an impressive service over them in the presence of many friends. From the church the remains were conveyed to a special train at the foot of Eighteenth Street, followed by a large number of people and taken to Villa Ridge and interred.
