Mrs. Edith Boyd Buried at Saranac on Son’s Birthday

A valiant struggle against the ravages of a heart ailment ended in University 
hospital Sunday for Mrs. Edith Boyd who had been under treatment there for the 
past two weeks.  She was taken there three weeks ago after an attack she 
suffered while attending church services.  

Following the seizure in the Free Methodist church at Saranac, of which she 
was a member, Mrs. Boyd was removed to the home of Mrs. Laura Sherman where 
she was cared for for three weeks.  Her failure to improve in condition led 
her doctors to advise the trip to Ann Arbor in hope that specialists there 
might be able to aid her.  She sank rapidly, however, and was unconscious a 
large part of the time prior to her death. 

She was born 39 years ago near LeRoy, Mich., and came to Saranac to make her 
home about six years ago.  She is survived by her husband, William Boyd, two 
daughters, Eva Belle 15, and Cora May 12, and a son, Albert 10.  She also 
leaves five brothers, Thomas, Alma; Hiram, Lansing; Arthur, Grand Haven; Frank 
Mancelona; and Baldwin, Middleville; and her mother, Mrs. Robert Mavety, 
Mancelona.

She was a member of the Free Methodist church where services were conducted, 
her pastor, Rev. C. O. Hayward, officiating.  Burial was in Saranac cemetery.
