A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LIFE ENDED
Mrs. Wm. Davis Passed Away Suddenly Sunday Morning.
The sudden death of Mrs. William B. Davis last Sunday morning about eight o'clock cast a shadow of gloom over the community. On Friday afternoon Mrs. Davis entered the sacred realm of motherhood giving birth to twin baby girls. One of them lived but a few hours when it closed its eyes forever, only to be followed so closely by the mother. The remaining babe is very delicate in health. Everything which human hands could do was done to save the brave little mother, but all of no avail and she passed away after intense suffering on Sunday morning.
Stella Turner was born in Ellington township on December 18, 1876, where she spent nearly all of her life. For a few years she taught school in neighboring districts and in May, 1896, she was united in marriage to Robert Walmsley of this place. They made their home in Caro where Mr. Walmsley held the position of secretary of the Tuscola Farmers' Mutual Insurance company. Failing health compelled him to give up work and they came to Cass City where Mr. Walmsley died in May, 1901.
In August, l904, she was wedded to Wm. B. Davis, manager of the Anketell Lumber company in the Thumb, who resides here. They resided on south Seeger street and were both highly respected young people. Mrs. Davis won many friends here by her pleasing manners and kindly disposition. Much sympathy is extended to the young husband in his sad bereavement. Besides her husband and baby daughter, Mrs. Davis leaves her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Turner, of Caro; two brothers. Floyd A. and Dwight Turner, of Ellington; and a sister, Mrs. Levi Greenfield, of Colling.
The funeral services were held on Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock in the M. E. church, conducted by Rev. H. A. Leeson of Caro and Rev. R. N. Mulholland. The address was delivered by Rev. Leeson and he chose as his text for the occasion, Hebrews 7: 19, "For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God." His message was comforting and inspiring to the bereaved family, and the tribute he gave the deceased was a beautiful one. He spoke of her sweet, gentle manners and christian life which will long be cherished as a blessed memory by all who knew her. A quartet consisting of the Misses Dora Wallace and Etta Schenck and Messrs. L.I. Wood and F. A. Bigelow sang, the hymns chosen being favorites of the deceased.
The church was completely filled with acquaintances who came to pay their last respects to the deceased, among them being about thirty members of the Caro Rebeka lodge of which Mrs. Davis was an honored member. She was a past noble grand of the Caro lodge. Venus Rebekah lodge of this place also attended in a body. The former society performed the ritualistic services at the cemetery.
The pall bearers were W. A. Forbes. A. Van Sickle and H. S. Myers of Caro I. O. O. F. lodge and W. Fallis, Chas. Robinson and J. C. Lauderbach of the Cass City I. O. O. F.
The floral tributes were very beautiful and consisted of several pieces and bouquets of cut flowers. They were borne to the church and cemetery by T. J. Anketell of Detroit and the Misses Fern Stevenson, Hazel Eno, Cora Dingman and Frances McGillvray.
The relatives from out of town who were in attendance at the funeral services were: Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Turner of Caro, parents of the deceased; John Schell, of Eastwood, Ont.: Mrs. Wm. Montgomery, of Port Huron: Burton Keeler, of Chicago, Ill.; Mrs. Henry Keeler, Mr. and Mrs. L. S. Day, and Miss Mina Schell, all of North Branch; Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dixon, of Kingston; Mrs. Mills and Mrs. Zendler, of New Lothrop; Walter and Bertha Davis, of Traverse City: Mr. and Mrs. Floyd A. Turner and Mr. and Mrs. Dwight Turner, of Ellington; ,Mr. and Mrs. Levi Greenfield, of Colling; Mrs. Willard Wells, of Gagetown; Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Cridland of Wickware.
Wm. B. Davis, the genial manager of the Cass City Lumber Yards at this place, and Mrs. Stella Walmsley, of Caro, were united in marriage Wednesday at the home of the bride by Rev. A. H. Leeson. After the ceremony the happy couple left on a short wedding trip. They will reside in the new residence recently built by Andrew Campbell, on south Seeger street.
