  Esteemed Woman Laid To Rest
____________
Death of Mrs. David H. Grant Occured Tuesday Morning. 
Funeral  Held Thursday.
______________
     This community was pained to learn of the death of Mrs. David 
H. Grant, which occured in this village on Tuesday morning at 6:45
o'clock, death resulting from a complication of diseases after a 
lingering illness.
     Eunice Clark was born in Michigan on August 12,1858, and was 
therefore 57 years, 3 months, and 25 days of age at the time of her 
death. She was married to David H. Grant in Michigan on Thanksgiving 
day in the year 1877, and in 1881 the young couple moved to Paddock 
township, Otter Tail county, where they resided almost continuously 
ever since. Coming to Paddock more than thirty years ago, Mr & Mrs 
Grant were among this community's early settlers, and like many others, 
they were sturdy people and made a fine farm out of the wild land they 
took as a homestead. They were among the community's highly respected 
people and the death of Mrs Grant will be mourned by all those who had 
the pleasure of her acquaintance. She was a woman of true Christian 
character and was beloved by all who knew her intimately. Mr & Mrs 
Grant moved to Sebeka a few  weeks ago in order to enjoy a well earned 
rest from a lifetime of strenuous work, but Mrs Grant's health failed 
noticeably the last few months and no medical skill or loving care could
 win back her failing strength and she gradually became weaker until 
the Angel of Death claimed her.
     The funeral was held at the M.E. church Thursday afternoon at two 
o'clock, Rev. L.W. Bates officiating, and the services were largely 
attended by the old friends of the deceased. Interment was made in the 
village cemetery.
     The bereaved husband has the heartfelt sympathy of his many 
friends in the loss of his loving wife.
