Mrs. Charles K. [Mary BRACKETT] PLANK, a pioneer resident of this city, passed away at Woodlawn hospital, Tuesday evening at six o'clock. Death was attributed to diabetes and complications. Mrs. Plank's condition became quite critical about a week ago at which time she was removed to Woodlawn. However, she had been in failing health for the past several years.
Mary, daughter of Dr. Charles and Margaret (WILSON) BRACKETT, was born March 4th, 1860 in Rochester and has resided in this city throughout her entire life. She was a graduate of the Rochester high school, the Deniston College, of Granville, Ohio, and the Chicago College of Music. During the earlier periods of her life her outstanding musical talents, both vocal and instrumental were most graciously extended in both religious and social activities in this community. Upon reaching womanhood, she united in wedlock with Charles K. PLANK, the ceremony being pronounced in the Brackett home on October 22nd, 1879.
Mrs. Plank became a member of the First Baptist church of this city when a girl of 16 years of age, and her entire life was devoted to the interests of this religious organization and her family. She also was a charter member of the D.A.R. and took active interest in this national patriotic organization until failing health forced her retirement. The deceased through her quiet and unassuming manner had made a legion of friends throughout this community.
The survivors are the husband; two daughters, Mrs. Charles PYLE, of this city; Mrs. Frank ENSIGN, of Boise City, Idaho; a son Don PLANK, Sr., of Rochester; a sister, Mrs. Frank BRYANT, of Rochester; five grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
Funeral services will be conducted at the Plank home, 1021 South Main street, Thursday afternoon at two o'clock. Rev. B. G. FIELD, pastor of the Baptist church, will officiate. Interment will be made in the I.O.O.F. cemetery.
