Prominent in City Since The Early Days; Funeral Wednesday.

Mrs. Mary Susan Percival, 73, wife of T.P. Percival, of 1107 North Third street, died at the Arkansas City hospital this morning at seven o'clock, following an illness of several months duration.

Mrs. Percival was well and favorably known in Arkansas City, as the family resided here in the early days of the city. She was a Christian woman of rare ability and had been a member of the Baptist church since early childhood. She and her husband have reared a family of splendid children in that faith. Mrs. Percival was a member of the First Baptist church of this city and she will be greatly missed by the pastor and congregation, as she was an ardent and untiring worker in the church, always ready and willing to take hold and carry out any task for the betterment of the church and the uplift of humanity.

Besides the husband, she leaves three children to mourn her loss. The children are Mrs. J.A. Parker, of this city; Albert F. Percival of Newton, and Mrs. Loyd Elliott, of Phoenix, Arizona. Seven children have been born of this union.

Funeral services are to be held at the First Baptist church Wednesday morning at 10:00 o'clock and Rev. Elmer F. Muir will deliver the address. The body will be buried in Riverview. Parman-Powell are in charge.

Mary Susan Boa was born March 15, in Canada. She was united in marriage to T.F. Percival in that country 61 years ago. She came to the United States to live in 1880. The family came to Arkansas City many years ago and the husband was employed at the carpenter trade here. Later he accepted a position in the government Indian service at Phoenix, Arizona and they resided there for a number of years. For the past five years Mr. and Mrs. Percival have made their home with Mr. and Mrs. Parker of this city.
