FRED HUBERT It was with sincere regret that the many friends of Mrs. Fred Hubert learned of her sudden death on Friday, Nov. 5th, 1920, at her farm home six miles west of this city, of infection of the gall bladder, at the age of 45 years, 7 months and 25 days. Sarah E. Stratton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Byron Stratton, was born in the town of Irving, March 10th, 1873, and has lived practically all her life in and near that vicinity. When her home was broken up by the death of her parents, she went to live with her foster mother, Mrs. E. Fisher, who has cared for her since a child of eleven years, and been in the true sense of the word, a real mother to her. Mrs. Hubert had been in delicate health for the past four years, sometimes better and then again worse, until a change for the worse came to her on election day, and she failed rapidly until death came as a relief to her suffering. Every possible thing was done to aid in her recovery, but all was of no avail. She was married November 24th, 1885, at the home of Mrs. Fisher, in Squaw Creek, to Fred Hubert. They went immediately to home making on a little farm about five miles from this city, where they lived happy and contented lives until about two years ago, when they disposed of that place and purchased the place where they now live. Seven children came to bless this union, all of whom were at the bedside of their mother when she passed away. They are, Mrs. Holga Johnson, of this city, Gertrude, a senior in our high school, Lydia, Loren, Archie, Delia and Freda, at home, all at the age when they need the loving care of a mother most. She will be sadly missed by her husband, children, relatives, and many friends. She also leaves one sister, Mrs. Jake Hubert, of this city, who is heart broken, as they were very much devoted to each other. Mrs. Hubert was a devoted wife and mother, sacrificing much for the care and comfort of her loved ones. She was ever ready to assist and further any worthy cause and was a devout member of the M. E. church. There were many beautiful floral offerings, showing in what high esteem the departed one was held by her friends. The high school senior class also sent flowers. The singing was beautiful and very appropriate. The funeral was held Sunday, Nov. 7th, at Trout Run, Rev. F. R. Harding conducting the services. Interment was made in the Trout Run cemetery by the side of her parents. Her cousins acted as pall bearers. The bereaved ones have the deepest sympathy of the entire community in their sad affliction. Card of Thanks We wish to thank the neighbors and friends for their help and sympathy during the sickness and death of our wife, mother, and sister. Also for the flowers and music.
