Mrs Dossie Farwell Dies
Mrs. Dossie Farwell of this city died at the Springfield Hospital Sunday evening, November 2 where she had been taken for an operation, following an illness of ten days from an obstruction of the intestines, resulting in adhesions which developed after an operation about fifteen months ago for appendicitis.
A consultation of physicians was held Thursday and it was decided that an operation was necessary. Accompanied by her sister, Miss Ethel Sands, of St. Louis a graduate nurse who had arrived a short a time before to nurse Mrs. Farwell, and Dr. Wallis Smith of Springfield, she was taken to Springfield for an operation but on account of the floods along the Frisco did not reach the hospital until early Saturday morning.
During the forenoon Saturday a slight operation for immediate relief was made. On account of her weakness no further operation was attempted. She passed away Sunday evening at 7 o'clock.
Dossie Sands Farwell was a daughter of the late R. H. and Mrs. Francis Sands. She was born at Carthage Oct. 8, 1583. Her parents moved to the Horner locality southeast of this city in 1901 where she lived until she moved to Cassville about two years ago to put her daughter in school.
She was married about 15 years ago to Charles Farwell of near this city.
Mr. Farweil died about two years later. One daughter, Jewelt, was born to them.
She was a member of the Methodist church, a teacher in the Sunday school and leaves a record of faithful consecruted service in her Master's cause.
Her sudden and untimely death has brought grief to a large circle of friends by whom she was held in highest esteem.
She leaves a daughter Jewett Josephine fourteen years of age, mother, three sisters Mrs. W. T. Bass of Sarcoxie, Mrs. Laura Horner, of near near this city, Miss Ethel Sands of St. Louis and three brothers Hubert, Otto and Chester Sands.
Funeral services, conducted by Rev. Lawrence Orr pastor of the M. B. church, south of this city , were held Tuesday afternoon at o'clock at the church and interment made by the side of the body of her husband in the Horner cemetery.
