Mrs. Leslie Wood, Former Resident Dead.
Word has been received by friends here of the death of Mrs. Leslie WOOD,
Saturday, January 16th, in a hospital at Santiago, California, at the age of 71.
Emma Hanmer-Wood was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Hanmer of Burlingame and
she herself was a resident of Burlingame and the Burlingame community during
many years of her life. She came to Kansas with her parents in her childhood and
lived until her marriage on what is now known as the Carl JACOBY farm. After her
marriage to Leslie WOOD, Mr. and Mrs. Wood lived in the Fostoria and Pleasant
Valley neighborhoods and finally moved to Burlingame where Mr. Wood was city
marshall for some years.
About twenty-one years ago the Wood family moved to Long Beach, California. In
time all the Hanmer families left this part of the country and after Mrs. Mabel
WOOD-SCHEESLEY and her family went to California no immediate relativves were
left  in Burlingame. However there are many early friends here who are saddened
to learn of her death.
Mrs. Wood and her daughter, Mrs. Uarda WOOD-DOWNS and her two children spent the
summer with friends here about seven years ago. Mr. Wood died at their home in
Long Beach shortly after an extended visit in Burlingame in 1924. Since his
death, Mrs. Wood with Mrs. Downs and her two daughters continued to make their
home in Long Beach until the past four years when they have been living in
Santiago.
A slight cold since the New Year's time, of which they thought nothing, seemed
to develop suddenly into pneumonia which ran its course quickly. Besides her
daughter, Uardam her two sons, Lew and Vaughn, were with her during her brief
illness an das she passed over into the beyond. She leaves her three chldren and
several grandchildren beside other relatives and friends to mourn her going. 
Funeral services were held in Long Beach, Tuesday, Jan. 19, 1932 and burial was
in Sunnyside Mausoleum.
