LETITIA SHOVE
DEATH OF MRS. T.C. SHOVE
Mrs. Shove, the wife of T.C. Shove, the banker, died on Wednesday night at
11:20, through a complication of diseases. For the last year she has been
in failing health and although everything was done for her that affection
could suggest, death proved stronger than tender care.
Mrs. Shove's maiden name was S. Letitia Wright. She was born in Herkimer
county, N.Y., March 20th 1833, and was almost 47 years of age at the time
of her death. She came to Wisconsin in 1855 and was married to Mr. T.C.
Shove October 11th of the same year. The result of this marriage was a
family of six children, four of whom died while young. The surviving
children are Miss Carrie Shove and Mrs. Frank Jones.
At the time of her marriage, her husband was a young man with no fortune but
a brave heart. He found in his young wife a help meet in more senses then one.
Not only in domestic matters did she give wise counsel, but in business matters
for which women are deemed to have but little aptitude. When misfortune was
impending she gave encouragement. Neither fears of poverty nor wealth realized
could affect the woman who lived for her family. She was idolized by her
husband and he was repaid by a love as affluent as his own. Mr. Shove's domestic
life was so happy that his sense of loss is now overwhelming. The slow work of
disease made him and his family believe that when the blow came which was
inevitable, the long days of apprehension would in a measure prepare them for
it.
But sorrow is not lightened by being expected. The fond mother and the loving
wife leaves a vacuum which philosophy cannot fill, a sorrow which time can soften
but not heal. The sympathy of friends is a balm at such times and Mr. Shove and
family have the sympathy of all who know them. The funeral takes place Sunday
forenoon at 10:30 o'clock.
