"Mrs Eliza Morrell Davis died at her summer residence, Ocean Park, Thursday morning. Mrs Davis was born in Phillips, Me., Nov. 23, 1855.
She was the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. A. M. Morrell and for several years lived with her father and mother at Harper's Ferry, W. Va., during the stirring times that followed the Civil War.
She was known to Augusta citizens as the wife of the late Edward E. Davis whose death occurred so suddenly a little over a year ago. She was a woman of sterling character and many lovable qualities.
She had known for some weeks that her disease was such that human skill could offer no remedy and she faced the future with the trust and hope born of an assurance of "things not seen as yet"
One son, Harlowe M. Davis, a student at Bates College and a brother, Prof Frank H Morrell of Irrington, N.J. survive.
"The funeral services will be held at Ocean Park Saturday forenoon, A W Anthony, D D, of Lewiston having charge. The body will be brought to Augusta for interment in the family lot at Mt Pleasant cemetery. Services will be held at the grave Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock when prayers will be said by her paster the Rev C G Mosher of the State street Free Baptist church."
