Death of Mrs. III. y. Bulls.
Last Friday afternoon the wife of
H. J. Bulls died from the affects of an
operation for appendicitis that was
performed Tuesday afternoon. Mrs.
Bulls began to suffer with sharp pains
some time before the operation was,
performed and two physicians were
called, both of whom decided that she
was suffering from appendicitis. At.
the time OF the operation there was
very slight hopes for her recovery as
the disease had progressed to point
where it so often proves fatal. The
sudden death of Mrs. Bulls, coming
only i've weeks after having given
birth to child, and having seemingly
recovered fully from her confinement.
was great shock to her husband and
folks. From the joy of. happy mother
hood there came the awful sadness of
the death chamber All that was DOS
sible under the circumstances was done
tor the suffering woman, who bore her
distress and pain with great fortitude
and passed peacefully to that rest
where there is no more pain nor suf-
fering. The funeral was held on Sun
day afternoon at o'clock from the
residence, Rev. Gratz officiating. The
interment was at Oak Knoll cemetery.
Mrs. Bulls died on her twenty-ffth
birthday, and at about the same hour
OF the day when she was born. Her
maiden name was Cora LamOreaux.
and she was the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Don Lam oreaux of Blue Hill. Mrs.
Bulls was born in Baraboo, Wis,
where her folks formerly lived and
where one sister now lives. She has
another sister who is married nd>lives
in Minneapolis. 4, Besides her parents
and two sisters she leaves four BROTH
ers. Mrs. Bulls was married Nav
23rd, 1901, and her untimely death is a
sad affliction to Mr.. Bulls who has
the sympathy of the entire community.
The little child will be cared for by it's
grandmother, Mrs. Eva Bulls.
