Elizabeth, wife of Wyatt Fenner, was born in Greene County, Ind Aug 9, 1845 and died at the Grand Central, Greencastle, Ind Aug 9, 1881, aged 36 years. She was brought to Greencastle about a month ago to have a
tumor removed. The tumor was removed August 2, after which it is thought blood poisoning set in which was the immediate cause of death. Mrs. Fenner has for 12 years, been a worthy member of the ME Church and we are assured that the husband's loss is her eternal gain. The friends of the deceased are also assured of the sympathy of the citizens of Greencastle, who made a brief acquaintance with the departed, and our
prayer is that comforting grace may be theirs in their great sorrow. The funeral services were attended by Prof. McNutt from the Grand Central at 5:30 o'clock Aug 10.
