OBITUARY
COMMUNITY HAS SUFFERED LOSS
MRS. INGALLS WAS A WOMAN OF EXCEPTIONAL CHARACTER
Her Sudden passing Last Sunday Has Left Many Sorrow Hearts to Mourn Her

Mrs. Josephine Ingalls, wife of Elmer Ingalls of Rural Route No 1, Charlevoix,
died at the Charlevoix Hospital last Sunday evening from the effects of
peritonitis, following an operation for the removal of a ruptured appendix. She
was in her sixtieth year. Mrs. Ingalls, who had been ailing for some time, was
finally brought to the hospital on Tuesday of last week and was operated on the
following day. Little hopes were entertained of her recovery and the fears of
relatives and friends were confirmed when the end came Sunday, at 5:45 p. m.
Josephine Peterson was born in Zeeland, near Copenhagen, Denmark, October 3,
1863. She came to this country with her parents when about six years of age,
first residing in Racine, Wis., later removing to Ypailanti, Mich. She was
married to Elmer Ingalls twenty-six years ago last September. To this union was
born but one child, Nellie, who is now a teacher in the Boyne City schools. The
mother instinct was, however, strong in Mrs. Ingalls and she found time
throughout a long and busy life as a farm housewife to extend a tender, maternal
care to six motherless children, whom, in the goodness and greatness of her
heart, she took into her home and treated as her own. In this respect as in
other of its manifestations, her life was a wordless sermon and shining example.
Besides her husband and daughter, Nellie, the surviving relatives are a sister,
Mrs. Marie Cooper of Orchard, Washington and two brothers, Peter of Orchard,
Washington and Fred of Sanger, California.
Mrs. Ingalls was a member of the Baptist church at Ypailanti for many years and
also of the local W. C. T. U, for several years.
The funeral services were held at the Methodist church in this city on Tuesday,
February 26th, at two p. m. Rev. H. R. E. Quant officiating. The remains were
placed in the vault at Brookside.
