Mrs. Ella Smith Dies Suddenly.
Funeral services for Mrs. Ella SMITH, 77, were held in the Methodist church
Wednesday afternoon, June 19, at 2:30 o'clock. The service was conducted by the
pastor, Lawrence Almond, and burial was made in the Burlingame cemetery.
Mrs. Smith had been in poor health for several years, suffering from heart
trouble, and death came as she slept on Saturday night, June 15. Since her
condition had been much improved of late, the news of her sudden death came as
surprise to family and friends. Mrs. Smith had spent the winter in the home of
her niece, Mrs. Howard SHIRK, in Topeka and had only returned to her home in
this city ten days ago.
Ella Leota MORGAN, was born in Zanesville, Ohio, March 15, 1863. She was one of
seven children born to Mr. and Mrs. A.O. Morgan who located in Burlingame in an
early day when Mr. Morgan became engaged in the manufacture of brick and tile.
Her married to William C. SMITH took place at Lyndon on November 20, 1884. His
death occurred February 22, 1927.
Mrs. Smith is survived by one brother, Samuel C. MORGAN, and one sister, Mrs.
Olla V. WELSH and several neices and nephews.
As a wife she made her home a place of cheer and comfort. Her kindly
countenance, affectionate disposition and thoughtful consideration for the
happiness of all have rendered her dear to those whose pathway she has made bright.

Through an error in the obituary of Mrs. Ella SMITH, published in the
Enterprise-Chronicle last week, her parents were given as Mr. and Mrs. A.O.
MORGAN instead of Mr. and Mrs. J.A. MORGAN. A.O. MORGAN was an uncle of Mrs. SMITH.
