The unfortunate girl became ill last week with a severe cold. The grip followed, pneumonia developed and finally terminated the young life. Florence was a lovely girl and an agreeable companion in a large circle of young associates. Prior to her last illness, only a littl more than a week ago, she was in the enjoyment of perfect health, and her premature death has caused a feeling of gloom in the neighborhood where she resided. The funeral will take place from the Church of the Holy Innocents at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Interment will be in Peacedale. Additional Comments: Dau of George and Mary Ellen Greatorex who emigrated from Sheffield, England in the mid 1880's. One of 10 children, mostly born in the USA.
