YOUNG LADY DEAD- Last night at eleven o'clock Miss Sadie J. Lister died at her home, 1609 North A Street, after suffering for some time with typhoid fever. Miss Lister has always been very delicate and weakly. She was a true Christian and a hard worker for the cause of Christianity. Her remains were interred in this city cemetery this p.m. She leaves many sympathizing friends and relatives to mourn her loss.

(per the above story Sadie was buried in Elwood City Cemetery but I have photographed the stone at Sigler in Frankton.)

There is an article in The Elwood Daily Press on Sat May 25, 1895 that states, "The remains of Sadie Lister were exhumed from the Potters field at Elwood Monday and brought to Frankton and buried in the Sigler cemetery."
