WILSON, PEARL
(5 Aug 1920, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
IN MEMORIAM
Mrs. Harve Wilson
Mrs. Pearl Wilson was born on January 10, 1897, at Cloud Chief, Okla., and
died July 19, 1920, aged 23 years, 6 months and 9 days.
Deceased was a daughter of Wm. R. and Rosa Galloway, both preceding her in
death.  She was married to Harve Wilson January 18, 1916.  This was a
happy marriage, both ever looking after the interests of each other.  She
was so happy in her home, so devoted to her husband, and she looked
forward so much to the joy of caring for the little baby boy who arrived
in their home just three weeks before her death.  She suffered a few
months ago from influenza, which resulted in tuberculosis, but she did not
seem to realize her serious condition, and when she passed away it was
just like going to sleep with a happy smile upon her lips.
Funeral services were held at the Edwardsville cemetery (Custer County) on
July 20, the pastor of the Baptist church of Clinton officiating.
Besides the husband, seven brothers and a sister are left to mourn her
loss, two sisters having passed on before.  The sister remaining, Mrs. Ada
Fitzpatrick of Canute, is caring for the little motherless babe.  The
brothers are John Galloway of Clinton, Neeley Galloway of Custer City,
Ralph, Sumner, Arliss and Andy Galloway of Canute and Henry Galloway of
Moses, N. M.
All were with her in her last illness, though her brother Henry had left
before she passed away, leaving her as he thought much improved.  All
loved their baby sister devotedly.  The bereaved ones have the deepest
sympathy of all in this sad hour.
