MRS. BERT ADAMS DIES FOLLOWING OPERATION
Mrs. Allie W. Adams died this morning at 5 o’clock at Hershey hospital as a result of an operation performed last Tuesday night. Mrs. Adams had been ill for some time from an internal hemorrhage and was brought to this city Tuesday evening from her home at Adams Station, Ia. The operation was performed immediately but the shock was too much for her weakened system and death resulted this morning.
Mrs. Bert Adams was born in Muscatine county March 15, 1882. She was married in this county to Bert Adams in 1899 and to this union were born three children, one of whom, Earl, died at the age of three years; Erma and William survive to mourn the death of their mother. She is also survived by her husband. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Van Mills of West Liberty, also survive, as well as four brothers, John, William, Amy and George Mills, all of Muscatine county, and three sisters, Mrs. Cora Conklin of West Liberty, Mrs. Hattie Pike, of this county, and Mrs. Minnie White, of Washington, Ia. The deceased was a member of the M. B. A. lodge and the Miriam Rebekahs.
The funeral will be held Monday afternoon at 3 o’clock from the school house at Adams Station. Interment will be made in the Swickard cemetery.
