“Picking a small eruption on her lip a week ago last Wednesday with a brass pin caused blood poisoning which resulted in the illness and death of Mrs. Ed McCormick, who breathed her last at her home on North McNally Street Sunday morning at six o’clock.
Mrs. McCormick thought nothing of the slight soreness which was evidenced in the pimple a few hours after she had opened it with the pin. The place, however, began to fester and enlarge but no doctor was summoned until Saturday, when the swelling had extended over her face and head. The family physician was not in town when the first call was sent in and Mrs. McCormick received no medical attention until last Monday. The first glance of the doctor told him that there was no hope for the suffering woman and every measure of relief was applied to her lip without result. She suffered excruciating agonies for seven long days until death ensued.
Mrs. McCormick’s maiden name was Sallie Sharp. She was thirty-six years of age and was born in Jackson County. Sixteen years ago she was married to Mr. McCormick and in 1892 they came to Livingston County, settling on a farm near Sampsel, from which place they moved to Chillicothe.
The deceased is survived by her husband, who is the proprietor of a grocery store near the normal, and two sons, Claude, aged 14 and Brooks, aged 8. She is also mourned by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Sharp, who live south of Chillicothe; three sisters, Mrs. Emma Smith, Mrs. Bettie Breeze and Mrs. Nettie Gray of Chillicothe; and three brothers, William Sharp of Carroll County, J. K. of Utica and Joseph L. of Chillicothe.
Funeral from the Pleasant Ridge Church Tuesday morning at eleven o’clock, Rev. Merritt officiating. Interment in the Pleasant Ridge Cemetery.” The Chillicothe Constitution, April 18, 1904
