Death of Miss Lois WhippIe.

The entire city was saddened by the
news which spread quickly at an early
hour Monday morning that Miss Lois,
daughter of NJ. and Mrs. A. d, Whip
pie. had passed away just before z
o'clock. Although it was known that
her condition had been critical since
Thursday. when she suffered convul-
sion and became unconscious from
which she did not recover, the hope
was strong with all that she would
again rally as she had previously and
that possibly the crisis might be past.
However, it was not to be and her life
went out quietly bringing sorrow not
alone to the household>but to scores of
friends, young men and young women
who had grown up with her from child
hood, lifelong friends of her parents
and to many others to whom she had
had endeared herself by her kindly
spirit, her bright disposition and her
womanly ways. Rarely ever has a
death in the city caused such genuine
sorrow in 40 many homes and the re-
calling of the death. of her brother,
Joseph, only few years ago added to
the heartfelt expression of sympathy
heard for the family on every hand.
Lois Whipple was born in the house
where she died, July II, 1892, and had
spent her entire life here. She gradu-
ated from the high school with the class
of 1910 and in the fall Of 1911 entered
the literary department of the Univer-
sity of Michigan, maintaining q fine
standing 10 scholarship up to the time
she came home for the spring vacation
eighteen weaks ago when her sickness
began in form which was difficult for
the doctors to diagnose and which de-
veloped so rapidly that her condition
was critical from the start. Battling all
treatment, the trouble which was at
first thought 10 be rheumatic fever
complicated possibly with some heart
trouble and later pronounced form of
blood poisoning, strengthened its hold
from day to day aud though she rallied
somewhat at different times it was al.
most hopeless case from the start yet
she bravely and patiently met her suf
ferings hoping all the time for the
best. Miss Whipple was member OF
the Episcopal church, u teacher in the
Sunday school and was deeply interest.
ed in the work of both.
The funeral services were conducted
from the house Wednesday afternoon
Rev. A. j.. Holland officiating. Very
many beautiful floral offerings spoke
mutely the sorrow of the lar.e gather
ing of friends and expressed the loys
and sympathy for Mr.. and Mrs. WHIP
pie and daughter. Miss Elsie.
Among the relatives from away fol
the funeral were Mr.. and Mrs
Marcellps Goodwin and daughter, Mis-
Hazel, of Ionia; Mrs. Irene Patterson
and Miss Durfee of Plymouth Mrs. A
J. Glichrist and daughter, Miss Flor
ence, of Cleveland.
