Mrs. H.H. Reed died of Bright's disease at her home on east South street at 9:40 Friday evening, having been sick since last April. She had a number of bad spells in the past two weeks but rallied from each, showing great vigor. But the end came peacefully with all the family at her bedside. The funeral was held from the house at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, Rev. A.E. Marsh officiating in the absence of a Congregational minister, she having been a member of the Congregational church for a great many years. Hazel Charlotte Copling* was born in Ashland, Ohio, October 13th, 1843, and was therefore 73 years, 9 months and 7 days old at the time of her death. She came to this county with her husband, Henry H. Reed, in the fall of 1878, residing near Ft. Calhoun until 1884 when they moved to this city. Besides the husband she leaves two adopted children, Mrs. Clark O'Hanlon and Frank Reed to mourn the loss of a loving and devoted wife and mother.

Another Pioneer Woman Passes To The Great Beyond

After suffering for a long time with diabetes, Mrs. H. H. Reed, died at the family home on South Street last Friday evening, and the funeral was held from the house Sunday afternoon with Rev. Marsh in charge.

Hazel Charlotte Keppling* was born near Ashland, Ohio, October 13, 1843, and after marrying H. H. Reed, came west in 1878, settling on a farm southeast of Ft. Calhoun. In 1884 the family moved to Blair. While childless, Mrs. Reed was always a lover of children and raised two foster children, Mrs. Clark O'Hanlon and Frank Reed, both of this city and no real mother could have been kinder or more considerate.

Mrs. Reed was a kindly woman and was well loved by neighbors and friends, and in her death the community suffers a distinct loss. She was charitable and good and her home life was almost an ideal one; ever good natured and pleasant her highest aim seemed to be to make the casual visitor to her home feel that all she had was theirs to share. As a neighbor, the writer finds it hard to realize that her pleasant greetings will be no more.
