DIED

Mrs. Sadie A. Lewis, widow of our old-time friend "Gus," died last Monday at Fremont, where she has resided since the death of her husband twelve years ago. The funeral was held yesterday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. A. R. Thomas, in Fremont and the remains taken to Fontenelle for interment.

The stone has DOB as Nov. 24th, 1881. Her obituary has her year of birth as 1861. She was married in 1878 at Fontanelle. We believe the DOB of 1881 is incorrect. She was born in Pennsylvania.
