Mrs. Mary GILBERT COOK, aged 83, died Sunday morning at one a.m. at her home in Culver. Mrs. Cook suffered a stroke of paralysis two weeks ago and was in ill health since that time. Mrs. Cook was born in Paris, France, November 10, 1847, and came to America with her parents when she was three years of age. She was left an orphan when she was five years old and moved with some distant relatives to near Providence, O. There on July 12, 1866, she was united in marriage to William COOK, who survives her. They moved to the Richland Center community where they resided for 30 years. Their residence has been in Culver for the past 17 years. She was a member of the Bethel church which is located near Richland Center. Mr. and Mrs. Cook were believed to have been married longer than any other couple in Marshall county. They would have celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary July 12. Survivors other than the husband are five sons, Frank [COOK], of LaPorte, Fred [COOK] and William [COOK] of South Bend, Ed [COOK] of Culver, Dan [COOK] of near Leiters Ford and one daughter, Mrs. Anna KALEY of South Bend, and 24 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren. Funeral services will be held at Richland Center Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock with Rev. F. WILMERT of the Culver Evangelical church officiating. Burial will be made in the adjoining cemetery.
