Obituary from The Lowry City Independent, Lowry City, St. Clair, MO, Thursday, Mar. 2, 1922:
At Rest
On Saturday night, February 25, 1922, at ten o'clock, Chloe Gillett, daughter of William D. Gillett, laid down the cross of life, and entered into the rest prepared for the faithful, from the foundation of the world. She died of flu-pneumonia in the twenty-ninth year of her life. Her illness was of short duration, was taken Friday afternoon, suffered acutely until ten o'clock Saturday night when her pains ceased, and her Savior called, "Child of earth, come home".
She was a young woman of many virtues which, with her pleasing disposition, endeared her to her friends and neighbors. She met and overcome the difficulties of life with a brave spirit, was the oldest daughter in the home and largely depended on by the family. She was a member of the Presbyterian church, and a constant attendant of the Sunday school at Chalk Level. Her death is keenly regretted by the community and their whole sympathy goes out to the bereaved family.
The devotional service was held at the home at three o'clock, conducted by H. A. Higgins. A number of neighbors and friends followed the remains to Concord cemetery, where loving hands had beautifully decorated the vault and in this we laid the body of Chloe to rest, beside her mother, who passed away many years ago.--- A Friend.
