Mrs. Charles Rodgers Dies in Arizona
Sad Message Flashed Over Wires to Loving Relatives and Friends Here
A telegram was received in this city yesterday announcing the death of Mrs. Charles K. Rodgers at Tucson, Ariz. A telegram received on the day previous bore the sad information that she could not live, and her many friends here received the message with sadness.
The telegram announced that she died at 11:40 o'clock, after a brief illness. Mrs. Rodgers was formerly Miss Florence Mast, a daughter of the late P. P. Mast, and a sister of Mrs. Harry Frey and Mrs. F. B. Loomis. She was married to Mr. Rodgers March 3, 1896, the wedding being one of the most brilliant social affairs in the history of Springfield. She was 29 years of age, the youngest member of the Mast family.
Three years ago, owing to the delicate health of Mr. Rodgers, she went with him to the West, hoping that a change of climate would be beneficial to him. They were accompanied by their only child, Richard, now 4 years of age.
Frequent messages to relatives and friends in this city were of an encouraging nature, and it appeared that the change was proving beneficial to both. Several weeks ago, however, letters were received announcing the illness of Mrs. Rodgers. It was only within the past few days, that her condition became critical, and only a day or so ago that the startling information was received that she could not survive.
Mrs. Rodgers was one of the city's most popular ladies. She was one of the leading society women of the city and was loved by all.
The body will be brought to this city for funeral and burial, but no definite arrangements have been made, since the body is not expected to arrive before next Wednesday. Richard Rodgers, father of Charles Rodgers, left yesterday to meet and accompany the body home.
