March 27, 1914 MRS. FRED BOWER BURIED WEDNESDAY The funeral of Mrs.Fred Bowers, a prominent Woodbury resident, was held at the Eckhardt church Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock, and the body was interred in Lakeside cemetery. Mrs.Bowers death occurred Monday morning after a short illness. Cancer of the liver was the cause of her illness. Mrs.Bowers is survived by her husband, two brothers, David H.Smith of this place and George Smith of Woodbury, and two sisters, Mrs.G.V. Hildinger and Mrs.John Schelter of Woodbury. It will be remembered that the father, Mr.John Smith died just recently, who had lived with the Bower's family on the old home farm. The community was greatly shocked Monday morning when the news of death of Mrs.Fred Bowers became known. She will be greatly missed, not only by her relatives and near friends but in U.B. Missionary Society, where she was a faithful and untiring worker.
