OBITUARY - On Tuesday, March 31, 1931 Mrs. Drury died, and the following Friday morning (April 3, 1931), Mr. Drury passed away. This couple were among the older prominent residents of Early.
Mr. Drury's death was attributed to heart failure caused by grief from the loss of his wife. He had been in his usual health until the morning of the funeral, when he made his first complaint, and was unable to attend. His condition did not seem serious up to the time of his death. He had been conversing with members of the family when death came without a minutes warning. Funeral services were held on Monday afternoon at the Presbyterian church at 2:00 o'clock, with Rev. E.F. Janssen, pastor, in charge, and assisted by Rev. J.L. Whitney. Interment was made in the Early Union cemetery by the side of his wife and two sons.
