JENNIE A POWELL

The community was shocked and saddened Wednesday when the news was given out 
of the death of Mrs. Jennie A. Powell, wife of C. C. Powell, which occurred 
Tuesday evening about 7 o'clock, caused by a stroke of apoplexy, when she was 
seen to fall at the fate of her home, In Corvallis, Oregon. She had passed 
away before anyone could reach her side.

Jennie A. Powell was born in Salem, Pennsylvania, Sept 13, 1857, and died in 
Corvallis, Oregon, Tuesday evening. September 23rd, 1920, aged 63 years, and 
15 days. In 1883 she was married to Walter L. West of McKeesport, Pa., he 
having died in 1885. One son was born of the first marriage. In 1887 she was 
married to Charles C. Powell of Plattsburg, Mo. To them were born two sons, 
C.K. and Harry. They resided in Missouri twenty-one years, then removed to 
Colorado, where they lived two years, and in 1911 moved to Payette, where they 
have since resided, until March of this year they went to Corvallis, for Mr. 
Powell's health.

The body was brought to Payette last Thursday morning, accompanied by the 
husband and C. K. Powell and wife, awaiting the arrival of her son, Mr. West 
from McKeesport, who arrived Saturday evening. A husband, three sons and five 
grandchildren survive.

The funeral services were held Sunday afternoon in the Methodist church, 
Payette, and the sermon preached by the pastor, Rev. Clyde Walker, assisted by 
Rev. Van Deusen of the Fruitland M.E. Church. The body was interred in the 
cemetery at Ontario, surrounded by a host of loving friends and the family and 
the abundance of flowers as a taken of esteem and love. 

Mrs. Powell endeared herself to all who knew her. Her's was a bright, sunny 
nature and her helpfulness and cheery spirit will be missed by many and the 
niche in the home never filled. Sincere sympathy is extended to the family.
