Carlotta had gone BY that time

OBITUARIES
John E. Myers

John l.. Myers
 John E. Myers, after an illness of more than five years, died yesterday at his temporary home on East Wiletta street MT. Myers was 36 years of age and was born at Toledo, Ohio, where he spent the greater part of his life. He entered the postal service at an early age and remained in it until i'll health com pelled him to relinquish it three years ago.
 He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Irma Myers. a son Robert and a young daughter, Katherine, living with her grandparents in Ohio. There are also two brothers and two sis ters living in and near Toledo.
 Mr. Myers, accompanied by his wife and son, arrived in Phoenix almost exactly a year ago. His dis ease, tuberculosis, was then too far advanced to leave much ground for hope, but undoubtedly his change of residence gave him a longer lease upon life.
 Throughout his long and painful illness. he was accomplishing and even cheerful. He was resigned and frequently expressed a wish that ii might come soon. Throughout hi, suffering he had the constant min istration of his faithful wife. The funeral services will be helC at o'clock tomorrow (Monday) afternoon, at the chapel of the Maus | undertaking rooms. The services will be conducted by Rev. J. l.. Mar quis, pastor of the Presbyterian church. Interment will be in Green | wood.
