Gladys May Noggle was born Feb. 9th, 1893, at Elkport, Iowa, and died at her home in Elk township April 30th, 1910, at 8:40 a.m., at the age of 17 years, 2 months and 21 days.
She was the daughter of Milton and Maggie Noggle. She was sick but eight days. She had a kind and loving disposition, thereby endearing herself to all with whom she came in contact.
She leaves to mourn her untimely death, besides her parents, four sisters, Mrs. Frank Ortman, of Elkport, Maggie, Jane and Ruth; also seven brothers, Jake, James, John, Bennie, Ray, Roy and baby, all at home.
Many are the tears of sympathy that will be shed by her countless friends Physicians' skill and tender care could not stay the hand of Death. But there now is "one less on earth, one more in heaven."
A very large circle of friends gathered at the home on Monday at 1:00 p.m., to pay their respects of love and sympathy to the bereaved ones in their loss of the dear one. Rev. Strather Hansel preached the funeral sermon and pronounced a beautiful eulogy on the remains of the dead, and the Elkport-Garber choir, led by Mrs. C. Dietrich Beck, sang appropriate songs. The floral offerings were many.
The pall bearers were Clara Combs, Rose Combs, Ada Michaels, Hattie Smith, Alice Smith and Mary Reutschler, who tenderly bore the casket to the grave, where, in the beautiful Mt. Harmony cemetery, all that was mortal of Gladys, will remain until the resurrection morn.
