Miss Gertrude E. ROYER, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.W. ROYER, living three miles east of the city, died Sunday evening May 5, after a short illness of stomach and bowel trouble. The death of Miss ROYER is one of the saddest that has occurred here in recent years. A young lady just entering womanhood, in excellent health a week before her death, happy in the thought of her coming marriage, this popular young lady was called to her maker after an illness of only six days. Miss ROYER was one of the most popular young ladies in her neighborhood, handsome and refined, with a life of happiness before her. Her wedding day was but a few days off, when she was to become the bride of F.S. MOODY, a popular young man of Newton, but God willed otherwise, and she was laid to rest in her bridal robe. She was a member of the United Presbyterian church of Nortonville, where the funeral was held Tuesday, followed by a large concourse of sorrowing friends and relatives. Card of Thanks. We wish to extend to our friends our thanks for their assistance and kindness shown during the illness of our dear departed one. C.W. Royer and Family. =================================================== Contributed for use by the USGenWeb Archive Project (http://www.usgenweb.org) and by the KSGenWeb USGenWeb Archive Project USGENWEB NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by other organization or persons.
