DORA HOBSON
GRIPPE CLAIMS YOUNG GIRL AS DEATH VICTIM
PNEUMONIA DEVELOPED FROM ATTACK RESULTS IN DEMISE OF MISS
DORA HOBSON, STUDENT OF HIGH SCHOOL, SUNDAY NIGHT
La grippe, which is epidemic in the city, has claimed as a victib (sic), Miss Dora Hobson, a well known North side young lady and student of the high school whose demise occurred early today at the family home, 726 North Sixth street. Though Miss Hobson's death was directly due to pneumonia the disease developed from an attack of la grippe from which she had suffered for several days.
The announcement of Miss Hobson's death was a great shock to friends of the family, few being informed that she was ill and her condition having caused no especial (sic) alarm. Yesterday, however, her illness took a turn for the worse and despite everything that could be done, death resulted at 1 o'clock this morning.
Miss Hobson was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Hobson and was born in this city 18 years ago. She attended the public school, being a student in the high school. Besides her parents she is survived by two sisters-Viola of Detroit, and Laura of this city, and one brother, Frank, of this
city.
Miss Hobson was a senior in the High School and was to have graduated with the class in June. She attended school all day Friday but upon her return home was taken ill and grew rapidly worse until Sunday night when death came.
The funeral will be held from the Presbyterian church Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Miss Hobson was a member of and active worker in the Christian Endeavor society of the church. She was a bright, attractive girl and popular with a large circle of friends to whom her death brings
keen sorrow.
