Mrs. E.J. Davidson was taken yesterday to the St. Francis hospital to be treated for a serious organic trouble. On the 9th she arrived in this city from Palouse, Washington, the guest of her daughter, Mrs. Ida M. Moore of North Emporia avenue, but her health was so frail, the result of an accident about eight weeks ago, it became necessary to remove her to where the best of skilled attendance and nursing could be rendered her. Dr. Purdue is in charge and is doing all that the best surgical attention could give. Her son-in-law, Mr. Eli Moore, has been for several years the resident inspector of the Texas Livestock association at this point.

Mrs. E. J. Davidson Bids Farewell to Earthly Trials.
Yesterday morning at the undertaking parlors of Director I.W. Gill, occurred the funeral of Mrs. E. J. Davidson, mother of Mrs. Ida M. Moore, of 1415 North Emporia avenue. Mrs. Davidson arrived in Wichita on the night of the 9th, having made the long and arduous journey from Palouse, Washington. She was very feeble when she reached Wichita, and sank very rapidly. The best of medical service was rendered her, at the home of her daughter, but it was early seen that hospital attention was necessary, and she was removed to St. Francis hospital in the hopes that immediate relief might be given her. She breathed her last, however, at 11 o'clock Wednesday night. The funeral services yesterday were preached by Rev. A. A. Parker of St. Paul's Methodist church and the speaker spoke most comforting words to the bereaved mourners, and his touching eulogy to the deceased left a lasting impression on the minds and hearts of all those present. The Stock Yards interests sent a floral offering of a beautiful harp which was richly laden with the most choice of hot house flowers. The pall bearers were: Superintendent W. R. Dulaney, Inspector H.C. Tilford, A. D. Spencer, and Mr. Wm. Bank. The remains were conveyed to Maple Grove cemetery and there interred after a brief grave service. The circumstances surrounding the death of Mrs. Davidson are peculiarly pitiful. She was old in years and suffering with the weight of infirmity, and added to this she had met with a fall which had augmented her malady. An internal affliction made this worse and she left her far off northwest home to reach Wichita in time to meet her daughter, Mrs. Moore. On the way here she suffered great physical pain, but her reliance on another power, prompted her to pray that she might be spared long enough to reach this city. This was granted to her and she smilingly met her daughter and with resignation which only a pure Christian heart could experience, she bravely met her last fate and welcomed the Grim Messenger who had for her the last challenge which surely must be welcome to those who have faithfully served, and then wait. Mrs. Davidson has one son in the Philippines and she received from him a letter the day before she was stricken unconscious. Her latest prayer was for him and that the flag he fought under might never de dishonored. She has two sons, a daughter and a brother in Minnesota, and one sister in Indiana. Her son-in-law, Mr. Eli Moore, has been for the past eight years the resident inspector at the Union Stock Years for the Texas Livestock Association, and has in Wichita a host of friends who generously extend to him and his estimable wife their most earnest expressions of sympathy in this their hour of unconsolable grief.
Mrs. Davidson was one of those "Mothers of Israel" who have lived a life of charity and who died with her trust implicitly stationed in the keeping of her Saviour. She is now well released from all earthly pains and suffering, and those who are left behind to weep and to mourn will miss her and her warm smile of congenial friendliness, but they must remember that what is their loss is bound to be her gain.
