Mrs. Nannie Phipps, well-known St. Charles and South township resident, died in St. Charles Monday, Oct. 4th after an extended illness. Mrs. Phipps, who was 83 years of age, had been in poor health for several years and her condition became serious Sunday afternoon.
The deceased was the former Nannie Bradshaw, daughter of William and Ellen C. Bradshaw.

Mrs. Phipps was born Aug. 16, 1860 and on Oct. 24, 1894, she was married to Robert W. Phipps. They continued to reside on the Bradshaw farm until his death in 1915. In February 1916 his widow moved to St. Charles and this place had since been her home. They were the parents of two daughters, Mrs. Ralph O. Mills of Winterset and Mrs. Walter B. Hart of Portland, Oregon, who survive the mother. She also leaves one brother, Stephen Bradshaw of St. Charles and five grandchildren.
The Rev. John Arnold of Des Moines, a former pastor of the St. Charles Methodist church, conducted her funeral services at the St. Charles church Wednesday, Oct. 6th and burial was made in the St. Charles cemetery. Mrs. Phipps had been nearly a life-long member of the Methodist church, and attended as long as her health would permit.
