Mrs. D.H. Davis died at her home west of town last week. The funeral was held at the M.E. church Monday at 11 o’clock, Rev. Doyle conducting the services, and the burial took place in the Dedham cemetery. (Carroll Herald, Carroll, IA, March 20, 1901)


Death of Mrs. D.H. Davis
Thursday evening the sad news was brought to town that Mrs. D.H. Davis had died very unexpectedly after a short illness which was not thought of a serious nature until a few hours before she expired. When it was seen she was rapidly growing worse a physician was hastily summoned, but the precious life was fast ebbing out when he arrived and in a short time the pure soul had left the house of clay to enter that city where pain and death never come. Mrs. Davis leaves a husband and daughter, Ms. J. Evans, to mourn her loss, and in this affliction they have the sympathy of the entire community, for we can call to mind no one person who was more beloved by young and old than she who was so suddenly taken from among us. At an advanced age, an earnest, consistent Christian, she had spent many years in the service of the Lord and Master and was ready to be garnered in as the full sheaf of grain. “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” The funeral services were held at the M.E. church Monday at 11 a.m., conducted by Reverends Doyle and Davis.
