Mrs. Emily T. Metcalf died suddenly in this city late yesterday afternoon at the
home of her son, O.U. Metcalf, traveling freight and passenger agent for the
Southern Pacific company.
Mr. Metcalf was absent at the time in southern Nevada on official business, but

been ill for some time, having suffered a stroke of paralysis several months ago
while traveling in the east.
Upon receipt of the news of her illness Mr. and Mrs. Metcalf immediately went
east and, after the aged lady’s health permitted, they brought her back to Reno
to reside with them.
Mrs. Metcalf is survived by her husband, Thernon Metcalf, and by her son, O.U.
Metcalf.  She was aged 66 years 3 months and 11 days and was a native of
Michigan.  Arrangements for her funeral will be made as soon as her son arrives
from the south.
