Death Of Mrs. DR.. Hathaway

Our people were greatly surprised and
shocked Sabbath afternoon to learn
of death of Mrs. DIR. Hathaway. She
spent last Saturday in Cleveland and
up to the time of starting home was in her
usual health. She then complained OF
sickness and her symptoms gradually
grew worse until she died at $50 P. N. the
following day. An autopsy revealed the
cause of death to have been the rupture of
blood vessel in the peritoneal cavity. II
was one of those accidents that no human
foresight could have anticipated or pre-
vented. The deceased came to this place
with her husband from Cleveland about
six years ago, and during her residence
here has endeared herself to a large circle
of friends and acquaintance by her many
excellent qualities of mind and heart by
whom she will be sincerely mourned. She
leaves a husband and two small children,
to whom her loss will be great calamity,
and who have the sympathy of the en-
tire community.
Funeral services were held at the resi-.
dence, Tuesday, at 10 A. NJ, conducted by
Rev. j. A. DAILY. Family friends from
Sandusky, their former home, came on to
the funeral. At the close of his address
Mr.. DAILY read the following beautiful
poem:
II 1 should die tonight,
Ny friends would look upon my quiet face
Before they laid it in its resting place,
And deem that death had almost left it fair:
