Death of Mrs. Simon Friday



Mrs. Simon Friday died suddenly at her home on East Main street, this city, 

last Sunday morning, at the age of 62 years.



Mrs. Friday arose about seven o’clock Sunday morning, apparently in her usual 

health and prepared breakfast. Shortly after eating breakfast she sat down and 

complained of not feeling well. She went and lay down and a doctor was sent 

for, but she grew violently worse and died before he arrived.



The undertaker was notified and the body embalmed and prepared for burial, the 

physician assuring him that he would make out the proper death certificate. 

Later Coroner McGann took notice of the case and while he had no suspicion of 

anything but natural death, he considered it his duty according to the 

requirement of the law, to hold an inquest, which was done Monday evening. The 

jurors were, J. V. Logan, foreman, Aaron Stinson, Henry Flynn, George Kunkle, 

H. L. Fristoe and Peter Thornton and the verdict was that Mrs. Friday came to 

her death from natural causes, which causes are unknown to the jury.



Mrs. Friday was born in Germany. She was the mother of William Friday, Charles 

Friday and Mrs. Wendall Ashbaker, of this city. The funeral service was held 

in St. Joseph’s Catholic church, of this city at nine o’clock Tuesday morning.
