FUNERAL TO BE HELD HERE

The body of Mrs. Edith Haythornewhite, wife of H. Haythornewhite, accompanied by the bereaved husband and baby son, arrived in Douglas yesterday for burial from Globe.

Two months ago the happy little family went to Globe on a visit to the friends and relatives of Mrs. Haythornewhite with the sad termination recorded in the local papers.

Mrs. Haythornewhite, whose maiden name was Edith McCall, formerly lived in Globe, where she passed her girlhood, her rare amiability and pure attractive character endearing her to all who had the honor of being numbered among her acquaintances. For several months she was in charge of the post office at Naco, where her friends numbered the whole population of the little border city. She subsequently became the wife of Mr. Haythornewhite, a trusted employee of the Calumet & Arizona Smelter. The union was blessed by a little son, now two years of age, which, thanks to the inability of innocent babyhood to comprehend the bereavement, lay smiling in his fathers arms as the sad news was communicated to a friend.

General McCall, father of the deceased, was at one time the youngest General in the United States Army, every inch a soldier and was prominently identified with the early history of the territory when Indian wars made strive and peril the order of the day. Among the dear ones left to mourn her loss is her aged grandmother, Mrs. M.B. Wilson of Globe than who, no pioneer lady of Arizona enjoys the regard of a larger circle of devoted friends.

The press, the people of Douglas, where the deceased requested she be buried, and a multitude of friends in Globe and other sections of the territory mourn with the bereaved husband and motherless little one, the untimely taking away by fate of a true lady, a devoted wife and mother, a model of American womanhood.
