Came Home From Work and Found Wife Dead

Mrs. Louis Nelson of 11 Oak Street Passes Away Unexpectedly

When Louis Nelson of 211 Oak street left his home Saturday afternoon to go
to his work his wife, Mrs. Mary Nelson, aged thirty-eight yeas, was
apparently in fairly good health, notwithstanding a recent severe attack of
the grip.  When he returned home in the evening, his wife was dead.  He
found her lying on the bed, dressed as when he left the house, but the
spark of life had gone out.  Her spirt had passed some time before his
arrival, although it is not known just when she died.  Heart disease is
attributed as the cause.  The many friends of the deceased will be shocked
at her unexpected death.  Besides a husband, three small children survive. 
The funeral will be held Tuesday afternoon with services at the residence
at two o'clock.  Rev. E. H. Smith will officiate.
