"One of the oldest ladies of the Gamaliel section died Jan. 24th 1911. Monroe Co. After funeral sermon, the undertaker removed lid from coffin to "allow her many friends to take a last look before placing her in tomb." The old lady raised both hands above her head and sat up in the coffin. In just two minutes the house was empty. She was taken home and again reported dead on Friday. At last reports she has not been buried." Contributed to the Allen County Times and the Glasgow Times. Note: This story was a joke started by the editor of a Monroe Co newspaper. Mrs. Pitcock was deceased the first time. She was reported to have been extremely arthritic and it was difficult placing the remains in the coffin. The coffin lid was tacked shut but no one told the pastor. When he had the lid opened, the body sprang upward. This information from current day citizens whose parents were at the funeral.
