“At 3:30 o’clock this morning at the home of Mrs. Weldon, her sister, on South Columbia Street, occurred the death of Miss Mary Howard of heart trouble, after an illness of several years. Deceased was born in Vermilion County, Illinois, and was 47 years old. For a number of years she taught school at Indianapolis, but in January was forced to give up her school and come here. She was a Christian woman loved by all, and all through her long sickness was cheerful. The funeral will be held at Mrs. Weldon’s home at 10 o’clock Wednesday conducted by Rev.
