                           Obituary

Meda Whitacre departed this life March 26th, 1890 aged 21 years, 3 months and 22 
days.

Having passed her whole life in Maple Rapids, she was well known by our people. 
We have watched her progress through childhood and youth and the brightness 
evinced in her early years gave promise of a life of usefulness. Her cheerful 
spirit was a constant source of comfort in her home and endeared her to a large 
circle of friends.

About two months since she became ill with what seemed to be pneumonia, but 
which terminated in consumption. During her long illness she bore her sufferings 
with much patience and till near the last had hopes of recovery.

Every effort was made by her family and friends in her behalf ad she was 
grateful for all their kindly attentions.The bereaved family have the sympathy 
of their many friends.

The funeral services were held at the residence, March 28th, 1890 by the Rev. 
C.E. Watson who kindly cherished the memory of the deceased and spoke words of 
consolation to the bereaved relatives.

                          Card of Thanks

We Wish to tender our sincere thanks to those kind neighbors and friends who so 
willingly and untiringly aided us during the sickness and burial of our 
daughter.
                        J.N.WHITACRE AND WIFE.
