“The death of Mary L. Hawker occurred Sunday afternoon at 2:10 o’clock at the family home one mile south of Wheeling. She had been in failing health for several years and for the past two months had been bedfast.
She was a woman that was well known all over the county and loved by all. In her suffering she was very patient and always thought of others before herself and had a pleasant word for everyone coming to see her. She will be greatly missed not only by her sorrowing family, but by the community at large.
