Ran to Catch Car; Death Soon Follows
Mrs. Abraham Lutz, a well-known and estimable lady residing at Nankin, died suddenly at 8 o'clock Friday evening. Mrs. Lutz was in Ashland Friday afternoon doing some shopping. She ran to catch the 3:05 o'clock electirc car, and in so doing over exerted herself. She was able to pay her fare to her destination, but before reaching Nankin had become so weak that it was necessary to help her off the car and to her home. Her condition continued to grow worse until about 8 o'clock when she passed away. She was aged sixty years, six months and four days. The funeral will occur from the Methodist Episcopal church at Nankin at 10 o'clock Monday morning
Catharine Thomas Lutz was born in Mifflin township, Ashland county, Ohio, on May 1, 1849, and died at her home in Orange Nov. 5, 1909. She was married to Abram Lutz Jan. 9, 1867. Ten children came of this union--six sons and four daughters. Five sons and three daughters, together with the husband and father, mourn a devoted mother and a faithful wife.
In the days of her youth she consecrated her young life to the service of her Lord and Redeemer, uniting with the German Reform church. After her marriage to Mr. Lutz she cast in her lot with him and became a member of the German Lutheran church of Ashland, but on their removal to near Orange both united with the M.E. church, which has continued to be their home. Sister Lutz was a choice spirit: her beaming face and cheery, hopeful words bespoke the joy and peace within. Ready always to reach out a helpin hand to those in need, a faithful attendant at the house of God, an all-round everyday Christian, she will be greatly missed from the social circles of the church, the Sabbath school and from the community. In the face of a pouring rain the funeral services were largely attended by sympathizing friends and neighbors, who thus bore silent testimony to her worth.
The circumstances of her death were peculiarly sad. On Friday afternoon she had gone, unattended and in usual health, to Ashland to do some shopping. this done, she hurried to get the 3:15 car for home. On entering the car she sank into a seat and, throwing up her arms, said, "Oh I am so sick." On reaching the station at Nankin she was quite delirious and directly after removal to her home became unconscious, in which state she lingered till about 8 o'clock, when without a struggle she passed from earth to heaven.
"Thou art gone to the grave; but we will not deplore thee,
Though sorrows and darkness encompass the tomb:
