Death of Mrs. Steele

Mrs. Hattie A. Steele died at her home in this city Monday, September 22, of a carbuncle on her shoulder. The funeral was held at the home on Wednesday afternoon and the body was interred in the city cemetery by the side of her husband, Robert B. Steele, who died August 21, 1910.

Hattie A Sage was born January 4, 1851, at Syracuse, NY, came with her parents to Illinois in 1853 and to Iowa in 1864. Here in 1867 she was married to Robert B. Steele. To them were born the following children who survive them; George E. and Harry R. Steele of Winner, South Dakota; Bert M. Steele, and Mrs. L. A. Oliver of Yankton; Frank L. Steele and Mrs. F. M. McLean of Winthrop, Washington; and Elmer L. Steele of this city.

She leaves three brothers, and one sister, thirty-three grandchildren and nine great grandchildren. She was the mother of nine children, two daughters having died some time ago, Mrs. J. A. Boyd and Mrs. E. W. Smith.

The family was pioneer residents of Nebraska, Mrs. Steele having lived in the state 28 years at the time of her death.

The funeral, which was conducted by Dr. Gallagher, of whose congregation she had been a member, was attended by the following from outside of the county; George E. Steele and James Boyd of Winner, SD; Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Oliver, Mr. and Mrs. Bert Steele, Mrs. Frank Sage and daughter Ella, and Mr. and Mrs. George Simpson of Yankton; Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Sage, Herbert, and George Sage, Sam Martin, Mr. and Mrs. John Nelson, and R. Lawrence of Crofton; Mrs. John Walters of Laurel; and Martin Martinson of Sioux City.

The deceased was a woman of the most kindly disposition, and remembered by friends all who were so fortunate as to know her. Having been a pioneer in Hartington, she was known to most of the early settlers, all of whom join most sincerely with the family in their grief for this gentle and kindly soul whose influence is felt to have been beneficent and whose memory will remain a benediction.
