Death of Miss Kate M. Abel at Noon Tuesday - She Had Suffered Long
About noon today at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. David H. Caldwell, 31 West DeWald Street, occurred the death of Miss Kate M. Abel, after an illness dating from last spring. She had been a great sufferer. Her affliction was in the nature of an abdominal tumorous growth, from which there was no hopes of permanent relief. The young lady underwent an operation a few months ago, the attending surgeons at that time being convinced that the end must come soon.
While the members of the family were in a measure prepared for the last summons that must remove from their midst a beloved sister, they are none the less overwhelmed with sorrow at the reality. They will have the sympathy of many friends in their bereavement, for Miss Abel was a young woman beloved and admired by many.
She was for five years prior to her illness, a teacher in the Miner School, where her painstaking efforts in the direction of molding young minds made her esteemed by her pupils as well as her associates in the school. The deceased was an orphan. She was thirty-two years old and was a sister of Mrs. D. H. Caldwell, and Mrs. Hattie Gallopin of Kansas, Miss Mary Abel, principal of the South Wayne School and John Abel, the attorney.
