EDNA GREENLEAF
Arizona Republican Newspaper
March 12, 1904

Tempe was shocked yesterday morning by a telegram which Mrs. 
Greenleaf received from Yuma informing her of the death of 
her daughter Edna at that place early that day.  It had been 
known that she had been ill for several weeks with la grippe 
but it was thought to be nothing serious and the sad news 
was altogether unexpected.  Only yesterday a letter was 
received from Mr. Greenleaf at Yuma stating that she was 
in no dangerous condition.  Mrs. Greenleaf and her two 
daughters, Ione and Alice, left last evening for Yuma 
where the funeral will probably take place today.

Though her home was in Yuma the greater part of the past six 
years has been spent here.  She attended the Normal school 
several years and graduated with the class of 1901 and was 
one of its most prominent members.  At the time of her death 
she was teaching her third successful term in the Yuma 
Schools.  She was barely 21 years old and was always known 
as a girl in the very best health which makes her sudden 
death all the harder to realize.
