Mrs. Ernest E. Jacobs

Mrs. Ernest E. Jacobs died at her home, in Abbottstown, Monday, July 29, aged 
about 40 years.

Mrs. Jacobs was ill but a short time.  A little more than a week ago she 
attended a Sunday school picnic with her family, near Abbottstown, at which time 
she was unfortunate in getting wet from a heavy rain.  A few days later she 
complained of illness, and her family physician diagnosed the case as 
peritonitis, but no serious results were apprehended at that time.  Later 
pneumonia developed which resulted in her death.

Mrs. Jacobs was a daughter of Jacob Moul, late of Paradise township, and is 
survived by her husband, one son and four daughters.  She was a most estimable 
lady, held in high esteem by all who had the pleasure to know her, and was an 
active worker in church and Sunday school.

Funeral Thursday, Aug. 1st, services at the house at 9 a.m., Rev. W. A. Korn 
officiating.  Interment in Mt. Olive cemetery, Abbottstown.
