Clinton Register

DIED AT PIERRE, S. DAKOTA.
Mrs. Elizabeth Samuel, A Former Resident of Clinton, Died Saturday Night.

Mrs. Elizabeth SAMUEL, one of the early residents of DeWitt county, died at the home of her son, Henry SAMUEL, at Pierre, S. D., Saturday night. About one year ago Mrs. Samuel was injured by a fall and this combined with her age was the cause of death, as her health never returned after the accident. The body arrived in the city Tuesday afternoon and was taken to the Oakman undertaking parlors.

Deceased was well known in this city and vicinity, having been a resident here since young womanhood until twelve years ago when she decided to spend her remaining days with Mrs. Ada ALVEY, who she had brought up from early childhood. A part of the time was spent in California and later they lived in Indiana.

Deceased was born in Indiana 85 years ago, but had resided in this county practically all of her life until 1903. She is survived by one son, Henry M. SAMUEL, of Pierre, the other three boys, Wilkin, Robert and Edward, as well as her husband, having preceded her in death. Four grandchildren, Clyde, Cuba and Earl SAMUEL and Mrs. Alva SPRAGUE, also survive. She also leaves a number of nephews and nieces in this city and vicinity.

Funeral services were held from the Oakman chapel at 2:30 Wednesday afternoon. Rev. F. W. Engle, pastor of the United Brethren church in charge. Burial in Woodlawn.

Note: She is listed as Elizabeth SAMUELS (not SAMUEL) in the Woodlawn Cemetery book.
