MRS. ELMER E. SCOTT
Passes Away at Her Home on Broadway

"And somewhere yet in the hill-tops
Of the country that hath no pain;
She will watch in her beautiful doorway
To bid us welcome again."

Seldom has the community been more shocked that this morning when the painful announcement went out from her home on Broadway of the unexpected death of Mrs. Emma D., wife of Mr. Elmer E. Scott, the wholesale grocer. Although she had been ill with typhoid fever for several weeks, her friends were not prepared for such a shock, all hoping that, with the skillful treatment and careful nursing so conscientiously given she would ere long recover and be spared for many years to cheer the happy home circle she so long had brightened, and continue to bless the community with her ministrations of music and charity.

Mrs. Scott was a daughter of Mr. John D. Davis, deceased, who was for several years a miller for the late Mr. William Trow. She was born in this city, and November 3 last was the fiftieth anniversary of her birth. She was married the 9th of August, 1888. Besides her husband and two children, she leaves one brother, William H., in New York, and two sisters, Miss Anna Davis of this city, and Mrs. Maggie Arnott of Basin City, Wyoming. She attended the public schools of the city and was graduated with honor from the Madison high school. In the prime of a most beautiful and attractive young womanhood, she became the wife of Mr. Elmer Scott.

Our friend, who is thus abruptly deprived of the companionship of his life's partner, needs no assurance of the heart-warm sympathy of his numberless friends. Notwithstanding the comforting presence of a daughter just past sixteen years of age, and a little son of more tender years, life's pathway must henceforth be lonely for him, and in the sanctity of his home we would not intrude save to commend the consolations of religion and the sure foundation for the hope of a reunion on the other shore.
