Call of the Messenger Removes Young Wife

When we step across the bridge of death it is no foreign land that we enter, but are made to mourn and miss those loved, familiar forms that pass out constantly from us and the dear home circle and in the light of memory their added forms are vividly kept in view. It is only with deep regret that we chronicle the passing out from life of Mrs. Lucille Hunt, age 30 years, who passed away at 7:45 o'clock Tuesday morning at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Parker in Tamms, following an illness of several months.

Mrs. Hunt was born and reared to womanhood in this city. She resided here with her husband, Prof. M. C. Hunt until she became so ill that she required the constant care of a nurse, was removed to the home of her aunt in Tamms.

She leaves, besides her husband, a little son, Mahlon. Others surviving her are her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wehrenberg, of Virden, Ill., and eight brothers and sisters, namely Fred, of Cairo, Ralph, Miss Mary and Mrs. Flora Clohe, of Springfield; Robert, Charles, Paul and Evelyn, of Virden, Also her grandfather, Cal Wehrenberg, of Tamms, William Mertz, of Cairo, Mrs. W. S. Sandeson, of this city, and Mrs. Eva Newhouse, of St. Louis, are uncles and aunts of the deceased. Other relatives and friends are in grief of her passing away.

Funeral services were held at the Methodist Church in this city Thursday at 12:00 o'clock Rev. Laurence Smith conducted the services. Interment in Spencer Heights Cemetery, Queen of Egypt Chapter P. E. S. No. 509 of which she was a member, conducted their burial rites at the cemetery. G. A. James was the undertaker in charge.

(William S. Sanderson, 25, born in Decatur, Ill., druggist, son of James Sanderson and Mary J. Mitchell, married Jessie Mae Mertz, 18, daughter of George E. and Susie Mertz, on 22 Jul 1900, in Pulaski Co., Ill. George E. Mertz married Susan E. Hawley on 23 Feb 1876, in Pulaski Co., Ill.
