Postville Review, Sat., 13 Oct. 1894.

Mrs. Glorinia Russell whose sorry and sudden death on Saturday from typhoid fever brought so sharp a blow to the household, leaves eight children, three sons and five daughters, the son in South Dakota and another in Marshalltown not being able to reach home for the funeral service on Monday. Three sisters from Waterloo and another from Decorah were present. Her early home was in Rossville, but she has lived in Postville for many years, where she was much beloved of all who knew her. The warm sympathy of many hearts goes out to the broken home. The deceased was 47 years of age.
