Belding Banner, 10 Nov 1898

Luella Webster was born in Greenville, April 15, 1880, and the following year
her parents moved to this city, where they have since had their home.  Here
Luella has grown from childhood into youth and was just emerging from youth into
a beautiful womanhood.  Here she has passed all these days, months and years in
innocent childhood and happy school life.  Nearly four weeks ago she was smitten
by that dread scourge, typhoid fever, and during all the weary days and nights
she has borne her suffering like a true heroine with no words of complaint, but
with a joyful anticipation of speedily returning to her dear old school, her
teachers, her young friends and best of all to her classmates whom she loved
with a great love.

Last Sunday evening, when to her faithful physician, every symptom seemed so
auspicious and her rapid recovery so confidently expected, she was suddenly
seized with heart failure and surely and swiftly was swept on by an irresistible
force to the great unknown, and when dying, mistaking the approach of death for
the return of rest, she sweetly said to heartbroken relatives, “I’m going to
sleep,” and thus she still sleeps, that sweet and beautiful sleep that knows no
waking this side of the grave.
