Marion County Patroit
Death of Mrs. H. Stevens 

Mrs. H. Stevens died last Sunday morning about 1 o'clock at Dr. Stewart's 
sanitarium in Columbus, where she had been two weeks previous to her death 
under treatment.

Our people were shocked beyond measure when the news of her death was received 
here about 9 o'clock Sunday morning because it was unexpected. The last news 
of her condition was to the effect that she was getting along finely, but she 
suddenly grew worse Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock and for some reason a 
telegram could not be gotton through to her family here announcing the sudden 
change for the worse.

The remains arrived in Buena Vista Sunday morning at half past 11 o'clock and 
were taken to the residence of Mr. J. W. Roberts, from which place the funeral 
took place at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The funeral sermon was preached by 
Rev. N. R. Sanborn at the Baptist church, after which the remains were laid to 
rest in the Baptist cemetery, followed by a large concourse of the people of 
Buena Vista who were deeply moved with reverence for the dead and sympathy for 
the loved ones whom she left behind.

Mrs. Stevens, was the daughter of the late Dr. J. L. Baker and sister of Mrs. 
J. W. Roberts of Buena Vista and Dr. W. E. Baker of Portageville, Mo. She 
leaves a husband and six children to mourn her death.

Mrs. Stevens had been a member of the Baptist church since her girlhood, and 
was a consecrated christian woman, whose influence for good will live long 
after her. 

The Patriot deeply sympathizes with the bereaved ones in thie hour of their 
sore distress.
