DEATH OF ELIZABETH OVERBYE

Died at Presbyterian Hospital at Six O'Clock This Morning.

At six o'clock this morning occurred the death of Miss Elizabeth Overbye at the Presbyterian Hospital. The young lady had been ailing for the past ten days, but had only been removed to the hospital a week ago today. Death was due to uremia and although she was given the best of care at the hospital, her case proved beyond medical aid. At the time the young lady was taken ill she was residing at the home of her parents, 902 Franklin Street.

Miss Elizabeth Overbye was born on February 1, 1891, at Twin Lakes Minn., and was sixteen years old a the time of her death.

She is survived by her parents, Mr and Mrs. A. O. Overbye and two brothers, Martin and Anthony, all of whom are residing at home. The father is employed by the W. C. F. & N. Railroad and the two brothers work at the gas plant.

The family moved to Waterloo from Ft. Dodge on June of the present year and it was while the daughter, Elizabeth, was visiting relatives in Ft. Dodge about three weeks ago that she was taken ill.

Funeral arrangements have not yet been definitely made, but it is probable that interment will be in Fairview Cemetery. The funeral will take place from the residence, 902 Franklin Street.
