She was taken sick two weeks ago last Saturday. An operation was performed and another one was necessary but she did not recover from the first sufficiently to stand the shock and so the second was not made. Today, November 20, would have been her 43rd birthday. She was born at Lomax, Illinois. She has had charge of the Metropolitan for five years. She leaves three children: Mollie, Lula, and ray. They were all with her when the end came. Her sister, Mrs. Kate Rourke, has made her home with Mrs. Davis for a number of years. Ode Rafferty of Argentine, James Raffety of Conway Springs and Mrs. Darwin of Bushton, brothers and sister of Mrs. Davis are here to attend the funeral. Father Kelly of Wichita was here several days ago and gave all the Catholic ministrations before she passed away. He will have charge of funeral services at Knights and Ladies of Security Hall tomorrow, at 10:30 a.m. File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/butler/obits/d/davis541ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.7 Kb
