FUNERAL SATURDAY

Woman Who took Life Buried at Walnut.

WALNUT, Ia., July 1. —(Special)

--Funeral services for Mrs. Ira Harris who committed suicide yesterday morning at her home near Atlantic, will be held at 3:30 tomorrow at the home of her parents, Jacob Schluter and wife, three miles southeast of here. The funeral sermon will be preached by the Rev. F. W. Simpson, pastor of the First Methodist church of Atlantic.

Members of the Schluter and Harris families are still unable to account for the young woman’s rash act. The note which she left mentioned a misunderstanding she had with her young husband, to whom she had been married but two weeks. They cannot understand how this could have been taken seriously enough by the young woman as to cause her to take her life. The day before she was at the home of her parents and appeared unusually happy.

NOTE FROM CONTRIBUTOR: Clara Schluter Harris was born about 1900 and died June 30, 1921
