TOOK HER LIFE: ANNIE HILL FARRAH
        Mrs. Annie Hill Farrah, living north-east of town, made a successful
attempt to end her life last Wednesday by taking a dose of carbolic acid,
dying that evening after the doctors had spent several hours in trying to
over come the effects of the poison. The funeral was held at her late home
on Friday morning at eleven o'clock, Rev. S. A. McGee officiating.
Interment was had at Quimby cemetery near Thornapple Lake where her home
was. She leaves a husband and two children, a boy thirteen years old and a
girl a couple of years younger.
