She united with the Drakes Chapel Methodist church at an early age. On June 13, 1897, she was united in marriage with David Ares Pollard, and to this union two children were born, Leland and Mary Helen. Most of her life was spent around Calhoun, with the exception of about 10 years which she spent at Barnard, Mo. For the past two years Mrs. Pollard had been in very poor health, but only for the past four weeks has she been bedfast. The Eastern Star lodge marched from their hall to the church, and from the church to the cemetery to pay its last respect to its departed member. The beautiful floral offerings from the family, relatives and friends were token of love and esteem for the deceased. She was also a member of the Rebeka Lodge. She is survived by her husband, two children, and a stepson, Claude of Kansas City; also her mother, Mrs. Emma Wiley, a sister, Mrs. W. C.
