Mrs. Pound's Death
Mrs J. H. Pound who has been hovering between life and death for the past few weeks passed away Tuesday at about 1 pm. For several weeks the hope of her husband and their friends was alternately revived and depressed as her frail spark of life grew stronger or weaker. At length the inevitable end came. The constitution was not strong enough to withstand the attacks of disease. Mrs Pound had been in delicate health for some years, more particularly so recently. Le grippe, lung trouble and fever were the immediate causes of death. About four weeks ago she and her little son, Earl, were both stricken down and both seemed very near death for several days. It was then thought her recovery depended much on his. Two weeks ago they both seemed better and on a fair road to recovery until about last Friday when she was taken worse, dying Tuesday.
Mrs Pound's maiden name was Maggie Baker. She was born in Michigan thirty-six years ago. When twenty-two years of age, or in 1887, she was married at her Michigan home to James M. Pound after which they at once came to this city and have since lived here. Two beautiful and bright children have blessed their home, Lena and Earl, aged about thirteen and eight, respectively. Mrs Pound was a well educated woman, attractive, accomplished, poplular. She was a devoted member of the M. E. Church and a faithful teacher in the Sunday School. She was a most loving and devoted wife and mother. Indeed here seemed to be a life shedding happiness and helpfulness around. The sympathy of the people of the town with the husband and children because of her death is most profound.
The funeral will be at the M. E. Church this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock conducted by Rev. Matheny. The pall bearers are A. H. Roberts, J.M. McKarahan, H.A. Arnold, J.L. Rippey, F.A. Buthweg, and G.H. Jones, old friends of the family. Among the beautiful floral offerings to her memory is a white harp with pink from the teachers of the Sunday School in which she taught and a beautiful lyre from the M. E. aid society.
Little Earl is yet in a dangerous condition. He has not yet been told of his mother's death. We hope he maybe spared. A sad coincidence is the death of Mrs. Thos. Pound, Mr Pound's brother's wife, Tuesday at their home in Fenton, Mich. Mr Pound's nephew, J. T. Pound of Newton is here as is also a sister of the deceased, Mrs. Babcock and her two daughters, Marcia and Susie, of Gallen, Mich. A niece, Mrs Barney, also came today.
