Popular Lady is Laid to Rest Near Lothair
Early Settler of Lothair Passes Away From Blood Poisoning That Started With Slight Scratch on Hand.
Mrs. Mary Schroer, 73, passed away at the Sacred Heart hospital at Havre, Friday August 23. The deceased resided on their farm near Lothair at the time. On the preceding Wednesday morning a slight eruption on one of her hands appeared and but little attention was paid to it until on the following morning it became painful and the arm began to swell, whereupon she was taken to the hospital, but the contagion had already diffused itself thruout her system and she passed away one day later.
A large number of relatives and friends attended the funeral which was conducted from the Catholic church at Lothair by Father Martin of Hingham on Monday, August 26th.
Mrs. Mary Schroer was born Oct. 15, 1861, at West Point, Iowa. Her husband Wm. Schroer, died in 1930. They lived first in Kalispell and moved to Lothair in 1910 and settled on the farm they still occupy north at Lothair. The native industry and thrift ot these hardy pioneers soon firmly established them in that community, and Mrs. Schroer, embodying all that is most admired in motherhood and homemaking, reared her family and soon earned a warm spot in the hearts of her neighbors.
About her there was little of the boisterous or assuming--calm, gentle and generous were her chief attributes. Ministers of the unknown chanted over her remains a parting prayer and the choir sang their musical requiem, and followed by those who knew her best she was ushered away to the realm unknown, leaving behind a life of steadfast simplicity and devotion to home and family that might with profit deserve the emulation and applause of the living.
She leaves to mourn her demise her daughters, Mrs. Douglas Parker of Sweet Grass, Mrs. Fred Williams of Shelby, and Mary Schroer; sons Frank, Allo, and Louis. She is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Barney Methune of West Point, Iowa.
