Medford (Oregon) Mail, Friday, 19 Jan 1900, City Happenings, p. 7, c. 2
The Mail regrets being called upon this week to chronicle the death of little 
Catherine, the four-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. W.  Stevens, of this 
city, which occurred Saturday morning last, of bronchial pneumonia. The little 
one was sick only a couple of days. In fact, only the previous day she was 
playing about the house, being afflicted only as thought with a severe cold 
and was being treated for that with home remedies. Friday evening a physician 
was called and later in the night two physicians were in attendance, but 
neither could save the little life, and about seven o’clock Saturday morning 
its soul passed to the other shore, and in the home where only a few days 
before there was joy and child’s merry prattle, there was death and sorrow–
such sorrow as only parents can feel. Funeral services were held at the family 
residence Sunday afternoon. Rev. Crandall officiating clergyman. Interment was 
made in Odd Fellows cemetery. The funeral was very largely attended by 
sympathizing friends and the little casket was covered deep with choice 
flowers. Sympathy is given these bereaved parents from every home in Medford 
and everything possible was done to lessen their burden of grief.
