Mrs. Clarissa Foote Homan died at the home of her parents, C. A. Foote and wife, in Washington township, on Monday of this week, September 13, 1915. The lady was aged 46 years, 6 months and 26 days. The funeral services were conducted at the residence yesterday afternoon, by Rev. John J. Sayne, pastor of the Corning Congregational church, and interment was made in the Forest Hill cemetery.
Mrs. Homan was born February 17, 1869 and raised in Adams county. About eighteen years ago she was married to Albert Homan, who with the three children survive her. The children are Charles P., Edith M. and Edmund B. Homan.
For more than ten years Mrs. Homan has suffered from tuberculosis. Some years ago the family moved to Roswell, N. M., for the benefit of Mrs. Roman's health, but she continued to decline until last December, when she came back to Iowa to be at the home of her parents. The children accompanied her. A few weeks ago her condition became so bad that Mr. Homan was sent for, and he was here at the time of her passing away on September 13, 1915. The lady was well known to a large circle of friends in this community. Her parents had given her every advantage and she was a very capable woman. For years she has been a member of the Congregational church, and her fine Christian life has been an inspiration to many a weary pilgrim in life's battlefield. Her going will bring sorrow to many homes, friends of the early days as well as present.
