Lake Odessa Wave Times, 26 Oct 1900

A Sudden Summons.

Nellie, wife of Bert M. Meyers, died at their home one mile east of Lake Odessa,
on Sunday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock, of heart trouble, after a short illness.  A
daughter was born to Mr. and Mrs. Meyers on Saturday night, and at that time
Mrs. Meyers life was despaired of, but she rallied somewhat, and it was hoped
she was beyond danger although the baby had died.  She was fast gaining strength
until a few moments before the end, when a change was noticed and she passed
away as easily as falling into a gentle sleep.  The funeral was held from the
U.B. church in Woodbury on Tuesday forenoon, Rev. Bostwick preaching the sermon,
and the remains laid to rest in Lakeside cemetery.  Mr. and Mrs. Meyers would
have been married two years this coming November, and their union proved a very
happy one.  Mrs. Meyers was 25 years old, and the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.M.
Sheldon, of North Castleton.  She always attended the schools in Nashville,
where she was a general favorite among the young people, later she taught school
until her marriage with Mr. Meyers, since then she had taken up the duties of a
home as energetically and enthusiastically as she did her studies and in her
work as teacher.  To know her was to like her, and she will have many many
friends to deeply mourn her demise.
