Mrs. Clara M. Abbott



The death of Mrs. Clara M. Abbott, wife of the late W. L. Abbott, Sr., 

occurred at 2 o'clock on last Monday morning at her home in this city, 

after an illness of over a year, the last five months of which she had 

been confined to her bed.  The laboratory rheumatism was her ailment 

and later an attack of some internal trouble appeared which apparently 

baffled all doctors who were called on the case.  Deceased and was 54 

years and two hours of age when death claim to its victim, and had often 

remarked during her illness that a presentiment told her she would die 

upon her birthday.  A strange coincidence is the fact that death claimed 

her two hours after the day had passed.  



Throughout her long period of suffering four daughters have faithfully 

attended her every want and for several weeks had hardly left the bedside 

of their suffering mother.  Both the Women's relief  Corps and Daughters 

of Rebekahs, of which the deceased was a member, tendered kindly their 

assistance and for two weeks past furnished night watches, to assist the 

family in caring for their mother.  



Mrs. Abbott will be sadly missed by many friends and acquaintances as well.
