menter received message bring
ing the sad news of the tsath of
Mrs. John Parmenter, which oc-
CURED that day at Rapid ity.
| About two months ago sy nptoms
of tuberculosis appeared following
a severe attack of grippe, and she
was taken to the state sanitarium
at Custer for treatment. The
treatment seemed to benefit her
tubercular trouble, but the altitude
proved to be too high for her, caus-
ing hemorrhages of the lungs, and
she was removed to Rapid City. A
few days after her arrival there she
gave birth to a little son, which
was about six days old at the time
of it's mothers death.
The remains were brought to
Scotland for burial, arriving On
the early train Tuesday. Funeral
services were held in the Methodist
church Tuesday afternoon, con.
Quoted by Rev. John Kaye. Of her
relatives, her mother, two brothers,
two sisters and one brother.in- law
were here to attend the funeral.
Frances Willard Walker, daugh.
ter of Sanford and Mary Walker,
was born at Webster, s. D., April
ii, 1894, and died at Rapid City
July 7, 1916, aged % years, 2 mos.
and % days She was member
of the Methodist Episcopal church
at Webster since childhood and
also an active member of the Ep-
worth League. She was married
at Dupree, s. D., to John G. Par
menter May %, 1918. Her child
rem are Gertrude Lenore, born
August Is, 1914, and John Robert
born July l, 1916.
During the past two seasons Mr..
Parmenter has had charge of the
Farmers Elevator at Blaha, and
during that time his family has
lived part of the time in Scot
land and the rest of the time at
Blaha. While living here she
formed may pleasant acqua,nt-
ances and won the esteem of all
who knew her by her modest un-
assuming manner and beautiful
christian character.
By her untimely death a hus-
band is left to mourn the loss of
faithful and devoted wife; and two
little children, daughter but two
years of age and a son only ten
days old, are bereft of a mothers
love and care--a loss which they
can never fully appreciate and the
value of which they can never
know.
