Ill Four Years – Emily P. Baker Dies Last Evening After Long Illness – Funeral Will Be Wednesday

After An Illness Of Many Months Death Comes At Last To Relieve All Pain – Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Baker.

Last Evening at 8 o’clock occurred the death of Emily P. Baker daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Baker, 416 East Seventh street, after an illness of four years.
For many months the young woman has been suffering with tuberculosis and for the last three months has been confined to her home. During all her sickness she has been very cheerful and always was looking forward to recover in the spring time, but the release of pain came in a different way than the young woman had expected, but it came also as a release for all the care of this world.
Silently the disease had done its work until the end came last evening. Peacefully and surrounded by her loved ones she breathed her last at 8 o’clock.

Emily P. Baker was born in Wilton, January 9, 1884. In the fall of 1898 she moved to this city with her parents and has made her home here ever since.
After finishing the grade schools she entered the high school where after working for a year her health failed and she was compelled to leave school. Everything was done that medical skill could do but nothing seemed to help her and she gradually grew weaker until the end came.

She is survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Baker
, three sisters,
Mrs. J.C. HUGUNIN, Misses NORA and LAURA Baker
and a brother BUFORD, all of this city,
and a brother ALBERT Baker of Los Angeles, California.

The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon ater which the interment will be made at Oakdale cemetery in Wilton.
