Charlotte Houtby Cole, wife of John Cole of this city, departed in life,
August 24.

The deceased was born in Walworth County, Wisconsin, April 10, 1847.

With her parents she moved to Wisconsin in 1860 where they located at
Rutland. On December 31, 1868 she was united in marriage to John Cole
living one year in the village of Dunkirk, then moving to Hillsdale County,
Michigan where they resided for three years. From there they moved to
Winterset, Madison County, Iowa, where they resided for six years, moving
from there to Stoughton and later to the town of Union and finally to the
home in Evansville, on North Madison Street.

Four children were born to this union, two dying in early life, the
remaining ones being Mr. E. M. Cole, of this city and Mrs. Ida Cadwell of
Beloit.

The funeral services will take place from the home on North Madison St., at
2:00 o'clock Friday afternoon, the services being conducted by the Rev.
Stephens, interment being at Stoughton, their former home.

The deceased was stricken very suddenly at about eleven o'clock yesterday,
being in apparently her usual health, having been able to do her housework
on that day.

She was a woman much respected by all who knew her and a large circle of
friends in this county and in Dane county will mourn the loss of a kind
friend, whom they will severely miss from their life associations.
