PASS AWAY

When a neighbor came to the home
OF her daughter to inform Mrs. Luther
jerks of Deadwood, that her husband
had just passed away at Yankton he
was told that the aged woman was her
self a corpse and that word was just
being dispatched to Yankton. Investi.
cation showed that husband and wife
passed away at almost the same hour
in different parts of the state, the hus-
band being the victim of pneumonia
and the wife of the ailments Of old
age. Each was 70 years old and each
was a pioneer of the Black Hills, hav-
ing gone there in 1878. Mr.. jerks,
who formerly made his home in White
wood. was sent to Yankton several
years ago suffering from a mental dis
order. and since then his wife had
made her home with Mrs. Sanford, a
daughter, In Maitland. Three sons
are also left by the aged couple.
