ALMA DAVIS Arizona Republican Newspaper October 20, 1907 A telegram was received in Phoenix last night bearing the news of the death at Rigby Idaho of Mrs. Alma Davis, formerly Miss Emma King. The news will be a severe shock to a large number of Phoenix people. Mrs. Davis was a particularly healthy and robust person, and was seldom sick, which makes the sudden announcement of her death a great surprise. Mrs. Davis, then Miss King, graduated from the Tempe Normal school in 1902, after which she taught school till October 1904 when she married Mr. Davis, a normal school graduate of the class of 1901. They met in school and it was there the acquaintance developed into love and was later solemnized by marriage. The young couple have been very prosperous, Mr. Davis being engaged extensively in cattle raising and farming. Those who knew Mrs. Davis will deeply mourn her death for she was a woman of unusual attainments. Beside her husband she is survived by only one relative, her mother, who has been making her home with the daughter. Her only brother was killed a few years ago in a mine accident in Yavapai County.
