Music Teacher Died at Home of Her Sister in Libertyville Wednesday

Miss M. Alice Davis, an instructor of vocal and instrumental music, died at the 
home of her sister, Mrs. M. A. Protine, at about 7:20 o’clock Wednesday morning 
after an illness lasting for over a year, at the age of 48 years, 5 months, and 
one day.

The deceased had suffered from heart trouble and dropsy, and several times 
during the last year she was compelled to give up her profession for weeks at a 
time.  She was a great favorite among members of the M.E. Church where she sang 
in the choir for years.  She was an active worker and took great pride in 
assisting her church at all times.

Miss Davis was born on May 28, 1865, at Libertyville and lived at this place 
practically all her life, with the exception of a few years when she made her 
home at Genoa, IL, until about a year ago, when she came to reside with her 
sister at this place.  She leaves to mourn her besides her sister, Mrs. Protine, 
one brother, George, who lives in the west.

The funeral services will be held at the M.E. Church this (Friday) afternoon at 
one o’clock.  Rev W. L. Whipple officiating.  Her former pastor from the First 
M. E. Church, Genoa, will be here to assist Rev. Whipple at th service.  Rev 
Chas. Briggs, an assistant to Miss Davis, will also be here for the funeral 
service.

The remains will be laid at rest in the Lakeside Cemetery in Libertyville.
