OBITLUARY: MRS JOHN LUTE

Hannah Willis Lute was born June 15th, 1842, in Coshocton County, Ohio
and came to Michigan with her parents in 1863, living first in Maple Grove
for a short time and then coming to Kalamo where they made their home on
the farm now owned by Wm. Wright. She was married to John Lute, May 11th,
1865, and has since lived on the farm where she died June 30th, 1905. Five
children were born to them, the oldest, Minerva, dying at the age of three;
the others, Henry, Jessie, Myrna and Mrs Belle Flory, and her two little
grandchildren were at her bedside to care for her in her last days. She
was a patient sufferer for five years. About four weeks ago she had a stroke
of paralysis from which she never rallied. On the night of June 25th she
was taken with hemorrhage of the brain and after Monday morning was unconscious
till death came to her relief Friday morning at half past one.

In her girlhood she united with the German Evangelical church. She was
a quiet unassuming person beloved in her home and neighborhood where she
was always ready to lend a helping hand in every case of need. She will
be greatly missed by all her many friends and sorrowing family have the
sympathy of all who knew them. She was one of a family of twelve children
of which four brothers and three sisters are still living.

Mrs Sarah Sprague, of South Lyons and Mrs Elmer Morris of Stanton, sisters
of Mrs. Lute, were present at the funeral, held on Sunday, July 2nd. Rev.
Haynes officiating. Interment in Woodland cemetery.
