Mrs. Frank Locke’s Death.

The report of the death of Mrs. Frank Locke Monday morning was a sad surprise to
her many friends in the city.  Her sickness was of short duration, proceeding
from a cold taken a few weeks ago and not until Saturday was her ailment
considered dangerous.  She died at five o’clock.  Mrs. Locke, whose name was
Mary Bird Foote, was born in Ionia.  She was the daughter of C.B. Foote of this
city.  Her marriage to Mr. Locke was blessed by the birth of two children,
Charley and Harold, now aged three and six years.  Much sympathy is felt for Mr.
Locke, who also lost his first wife and three children.

The funeral services, which were largely attended, were held in the
Congregational church, with which society she affiliated.  At her request the
remains are buried in Green’s cemetery by the side of a brother.  The order of
Modern Woodmen attended in the body.
