Death of a Young Wife and Mother
Mrs. Hattie Mahan, wife of Joseph J. [ones] Mahan, died at the hospital in St. Joseph Saturday, and her body arrived here today noon, accompanied by the heartbroken husband.
Mrs. Mahan had been sick about a month and the attending physician decided that her only hope lay in having an operation performed. Tuesday her husband accompanied her to St. Joseph and the operation was performed. All that science and skill could do was done; every attention that love of husband and experience of nurse could conceive was given, but all was in vain and futile. The Allwise in His wisdom had ordained that she should go, and all the knowledge and skill of man could not avail, nor all the love and prayers of husband, child and near and dear ones hold her back from the dark abyss of death.
The deceased was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mark [Martin Luther] Keith, who reside in Gay Township, and the sister of Mart, Frank and Lon Keith. Her age was about 21.
A husband and one child, a little boy of 4, are left to mourn her untimely end.
Funeral services will be held tomorrow at 2 p. m. at the residence of Thos. Mahan. Interment at Fairview cemetery.
