Obituary Of Mrs. Cook

| Jennie Merwine was born March "a
1856 in Morrow County, Ohio and she
departed this life Saturday, April 8,
1910. Her marriage to George Cook oc-
CURED December 81, 1872 in Powe-
shiek County, Iowa. To this union
were born five children, three of
whom have preceded their mother in
death. For time after their mar
riage Mr.. ane Mrs. Cook lived in Po-
weshiek county but their home for the
past twenty seven years had been in
Audubon. Mrs. Cook united with the
Church of Christ here in Audubon
during the ministry of c A Lockhart
and remained faithful and consis-
tent memb until the end. Her last
illness was of only thirty minutes
duration passing away before any me-
dical aid could be obtained. Her death
was sudden but not altogether unex-
pected. She had been in poor health
for more than year and q half and
the nature of her disease was such that
death was to be expected at any time.
She herself recognized this fact and
was prepared to 60 hence. Besides the
immediate family be leaves a sister
in Nebraska, three brothers and a
great company Of friends and chris
tians to cherish her memory and
mourn their great loss. The funeral
services we're held Monday afternoon
at the Christian Church and were
conducted by the pastor, Rev. Van
noy. The burial took place in Maple
Grove Cemetery ut Audubon.
