MISS EDNA aAPEN DEAD.
One of Aexico's Most Popular Young
Ladies Passed Away Tues
day Morning.

The Angel of Death has once more
laid his hand on a fair one and beck
oned one more soul across the river
into that land where sorrow and pain
are not known, and from which none
ever return.
just as the SUMS first rays announ-
ced the coming of day Tuesday morn
ing Edna Josephine Gapen, the fair
daughter of MIR. and Mrs. ]. z. Gapen,
passed peacefully away as one falling
asleep.
Miss Gapen had been sick but a
short time. About ten days ago she
returned from a visit TO relatives in
st. Louis and was taken sick shortly
after her arrival home. Her condi-
ton gradually grew more serious and
typhoid fever developed at last. This
dread disease, combined with an at
tack of heart trouble, to which she
was somewhat given, caused her
seemingly untimely death.
She vas only a little over twenty,
having passed her twentieth birthday
on June 22nd, and was the only daugh-
ter In the family, which consists of the
father and mother and several sons.
This fact makes her taking away all
the harder to bear and her parents
are crazed with grief. A girl of un-
usual strength and purity of charac-
ter, of a sweet, loving disposition and
an amiable manner that could not
help but impress n forcibly, she will
long be missed by a large circle o.
friends, young and old, who deeply
sympathiZe with the bereaved family
in their terrible sorrow.
The funeral was held ut the NJ
E. Church, South, of which Miss
Gapen was a member, and also 6
member of the choir, at $3.50 Wednes'
afternoon and the services wa
conducted by Rev. ]. Fl. Pritchett, o.
that church, and Rev. DR.. Miller, OF
| Moberiy.
