Mrs. Eugene Jones, one of this city’s most active church workers and present
president of the Ladies Aid 
Society of the Church of Christ, passed away at her home at 605 South Main Street
Sunday morning at 
seven o’clock.  Uremic poisoning caused her death.  She had been seriously ill since
one week ago last 
Saturday and in failing health for the past several months.

Funeral services will be from the home Tuesday afternoon at 2 o’clock.  Rev. Louis
O. Mink, of the Church 
of Christ, will have charge.  Burial will be made in the Rudolph Cemetery.

The deceased was born on a farm in Sandusky county near Clyde, September 11, 1863,
making her in her 
sixtieth year when death called.  She spent her girlhood days in Sandusky county and
in 1893 was united in 
marriage with Eugene Jones, also a native of Sandusky county.  The couple settled in
their home 
community for several years and then went west where they remained a while and in
1891 came to Wood 
County settling on a farm North of Rudolph.  Here they lived for a number of years
and then moved to 
Rudolph from where they came to this city ten years ago and have been here since.

While residents of Bowling Green, Mr. Jones has been in the retail coal business. 
Mrs. Jones’ main activities 
here were in the Church of Christ, having united with this church when but a young
girl.  She was an 
indispensable worker in the church where she performed her duties with heart and
soul.  As was 
mentioned above she was president of the Ladies’ Aid Society at the time of her
passing and the vacancy 
made by her death is one that will not be easily filled.  She was also a member of
the Gleaners Sunday 
School class and of the Wiley Relief Corps, The Pythias Sisters and Women’s Benefit
Association of the 
Maccabees.  Although not unusually active in these fraternal orders she was a
faithful attendant and always 
ready to shoulder any duties slotted her.

Mrs. Jones was a woman with many charming qualities which had won a host of true
friends.  She was a 
very obliging person with a natural sweetness of disposition that made her friends
where she was found.  
She had excellent judgement but exercised it in a way that made her a quiet
unassuming person.  She can 
best be described as a woman with a magnanimous soul and it will be with sincere
regret that her many 
friends will learn of her untimely passing.

She leaves to sorrow for her passing a most devoted husband and two brothers and one
sister, Ambrose 
Jones, of Holland, O., and William of near Clyde, and Mrs. Cyrile Wagoner, of
Toledo.  One son, Artie, 
preceded the mother to the better life in 1900 at the age of sixteen years.
