    Notes:

    SUFFERED STROKE AT DINNER TABLE
    Mrs. Sophronia Hamsher died at the home of her cousin, Mrs. J. F. Deitzel, last week Thursday night, at 9 o'clock, aged 63 years. Deceased was born in Scottsburg and was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William and Elizabeth Hamsher, and her entire life, with the exception of a few years in the west, has been spent in this section where for many years she taught school, and has many relatives and acquaintances in this place and Dansville. Last October she engaged as housekeeper for Mr. and Mrs. George Stannarius and remained with them until about three weeks ago when she left on account of illness, having been taken with grippe a week previous. She visited Mr. and Mrs. A. O. Curtis, relatives, and last Thursday morning went to Mrs. J. F. Deitzel's. At the dinner table she was stricken with paralysis and grew gradually worse until a severe shock in the evening caused her death. She was a Christian woman and esteemed by all who knew her, and the suddenness of her death deeply moved her relatives and friends, as she was in her usual health prior to being taken sick with the grippe. A short prayer service was held at the home of Mrs. Deitzel on Monday morning at eight o'clock and the remains were removed to the English Lutheran church at Dansville, where services were held. Interment was at Sparta Center, beside her father and mother. Two brothers survive: Fred, of Detroit, Mich.; and Elmer, of Rochester.
