The Hebron Register (Hebron, Nebraska) 14 Feb 1896
Miss L. May Hodson died at the residence of her uncle, Joseph Lamb, two miles east of town, yesterday, of consumption. The funeral services were held in the M.E. church today at 1 o'clock p.m. The sermon was preached by Rev. E.C. Boaz, of Narka. At the close of the services at the church the remains were taken to the Lamb cemetery for interment.
Miss Hodson taught in the grammar department of the Hubbell schools a couple of years ago, and while here made many friends who are deeply grieved over the death.
A pretty and effecting scene was the part taken by her former pupils to the number of forty. These pupils, each wearing a badge of white and black ribbon on the left arm and carrying a bunch of flowers, formed in line at the school house and marched to the church where they formed a line on each side of the walk and stood with heads bowed while the funeral cortege passed into the church. They then marched and deposited their flowers on the coffin. During the services they sang three songs. After the services they marched out and again formed in line and stood as before until the corpse had been carried out and placed in the hearse, when they marched back to the school house and broke ranks.
