Three years after the death of her husband, A.P. Skeed, Mrs Rebecca Tucker Skeed passed to her reward July 24th, at her home in Clearmont, following a four days illness.
Funeral services were held Friday afternoon at the M.E. Church in Clearmont, conducted by Dr C.L. Curl of Maryville, the remains being then brought to Clarinda, to rest beside the grave of her husband gone before. She was 84 years of age.
For many years A.P. Skeed was editor of the Clearmont News, following a long and honorable career as newspaper man, having started the Coin Eagle in 1884, later being associated with the Clarinda Herald and Clarinda Journal, back in the days when it required a real printer to set type and run a paper.
