Death of a Young Lady
Miss Myrta Catlin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas S Catlin, living seven miles southeast of Hopkins, died last Sunday morning at 4 o’clock of congestion of the brain. She had been seriously ill for about two weeks but hopes of her recovery were entertained, although it was known that she was dangerously sick. She has always been the very picture of health and the universal expression is that it don’t seem possible that one so healthy looking could be stricken so soon.
Myrta was very popular with the young people and indeed with everyone, because of her lovable character and pleasant disposition. Quite a number of her friends and schoolmates from Hopkins attended the funeral, as well as many from Sheridan and nearly everyone in the neighborhood between those two places.
She was 18 years, 10 months and 28 days old at the time of her death and was born and raised in the neighborhood where she died. She has been a member of the Methodist church for about eight years and was a member of the Sunday School at Gaynor where she will be greatly missed as well as in the home life and in society.
The funeral was held at Gaynor Monday, Feb 9, 1903, conducted by Rev Yetter of Pickering, who was her former pastor, assisted by Rev Bieber of Parnell, her present pastor. The large gathering and genuine expressions of sorrow made the service a very impressive one. Burial took place in Long Branch cemetery near Gaynor.
Thus endeth a young life in the very bloom of womanhood. The loss here is irreparable but heaven is richer. V. W. R.
