Newspaper clippings: Sacramento Daily Record-Union, Sacramento, CA, Wednesday, 14 Mar 1888, pg 1 - - A NOBLE WOMAN GONE. - Death of Mrs. Ellen Tupper, the Writer and Entomologist. - El Paso, March 13th. - The remains of Mrs. Ellen Tupper, the celebrated entomologist and so-called " Queen Bee," of Iowa, known in California and Oregon, were forwarded to-day from El Paso to Sioux Falls, Dak., for burial by the side of her husband. She had come from Portland, Or., for a lengthy visit, staying on the way at San Francisco, Oakland, San Luis Obispo and Los Angeles.
Her intention was to remain until summer in El Paso with her married daughter, Mrs. H. A. True, and then return to Dakota, where her other children are living at Sioux Falls, but on Saturday evening she was stricken down without warning while in the full enjoyment of her physical and mental powers, and on the point of taking a walk. Her daughter stepped out of the room for half a minute, and, returning, found her mother in a chair gasping her last.
Mrs. Tupper was widely known in this country and Europe as a leading authority on bees and entomology generally. For many years she edited the American Bee Journal at Des Moines, and devoted considerable attention to literature generally. She was a regular correspondent of the Youths' Companion, the Portland Oregonian and other journals. Her private life was remarkably exalted and pure. Few American women left such a cherished remembrance behind them.
