Monroe Watchman, Monroe West Virginia - October 17, 1907

Miss Irene Hoke, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Hoke, formerly of Monroe county, died of typhoid fever at Pineville, Wyoming county, on Friday evening, Oct. 4, 1907, aged about 22 years. She was an accomplished and attractive young lady, a graduate of Marshall College, and was teaching music at Pineville where she was exceptionally popular. Miss Hoke was a lovely Christian character and her death was a victory over the grave and its terrors. Her remains were brought to the home of her parents at Green Sul. Springs, Summers county, and there interred on Monday, Oct. 7. Thus for the fourth time since July 29 last have Mr. and Mrs. Hoke been bereaved. On that date their daughter, Mrs. Bertie Maddy, died of typhoid fever at Oineville. On Aug. 18 their son-in-law, Mr. Wm. T. Maddy, died of the same fatal disease at Green Sulphur; and on the same day their daughter-in-law, Mrs. Willie Hoke, died in Avis. And now they have been robbed of their daughter, Miss Irene, by the same dreadful inalady, typhoid fever. Their friends indeed sympathize with them profoundly.
