In 1903 Mrs. Fox moved to Cedar Rapids, where she lived up to the time of her death. She was a member of the Christian church, having joined that church at the age of twenty years.
She was the mother of nine children eight of whom are living. Four of her children were present to minister to her in her last illness, namely: Ednah Mrs. Sherman Boring, of Omaha, Martin Fox of Ashland, and Samuel Fox of Belgrade.
Th funeral was held at the Methodist church Monday at 4 o'clock, conducted by rev. J. s. Green and interment made in the west cemetery.
