DEATH OF MRS. JOHN A. EVANS.

Ada C. HUNTER was born at Atlanta, Ill., July 18, 1859. She was married to John A. EVANS, March 16, 1882. They came to Eureka in 1891, where for sixteen years they kept student boarders; part of the time in Lida’s Wood, and part of the time in their home on College Avenue. In 1907 they removed to Texico, N. M., where they lived for fifteen years, spending part of the time with their daughter, Mrs. Nannie DEIHL, in Madison and Milwaukee, Wis. The husband died July 6, 1922, and after the death of her son-in-law, J. D. DEIHL, in 1823, Mrs. Evans lived with her daughter in Milwaukee. In July, 1926, she went to visit her brother in New Mexico, where, on Oct. 13, she suffered a paralytic stroke. In January she was brought to Milwaukee, where, suffering a second stroke, she died June 2, 1927. She is survived by her daughter, Mrs. Deihl, and four grandchildren; also by two step-children, Miss Myrtle and Charles EVANS.

At the age of eighteen she became a member of the Christian church, and remained steadfast to the end.

The body was brought here for burial in Olio cemetery, and on Monday afternoon funeral services were conducted in the Christian church by Pastor Helfer, assisted by Professors Jones and Radford. The song service was rendered by Prof. Higdon, Mrs. Annie Madison at the piano. The pallbearers were J. M. Allen, R. J. Dickinson, S. G. Harrod, T. J. McGuire, H. A. Pearson and G. W. Wadsworth.
