DEATH OF LADY COMMUNITY LOSS

Mrs. Ernest Zuck Prominent In Logan Affairs---
Many Attend Funeral

The people of this vicinity were shocked beyond words when the sad news came Sunday night October 15, that Mrs. Zuck was dead. Although it was known several weeks past, that she was in a critical condition, she made a brave fight and it was hoped she would win, but she was taken suddenly worse. All that medical skill could do, was done. The Pale Rider was relentless and soon the message came "she is gone." With this passing we have been called to give up a kind neighbor, a loving wife and mother, but we know that she had so lived, that when the summons came to join that innumerable caravan that moves to that mysterious realm, where each shall take his chamber in the silent halls of death, she went, not like the quarry slave at night, scourged to his dungeon, but sustained and soothed by an unfaltering trust, approached her grave like one who wraps the drapery of his couch about him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.
"She's gone, she's gone,
Gone to that silent land,
Sad are the hearts she has left behind,
Sad is this little band.
Sad is this little band. She's gone, but she leaves behind a cherished memory, a life rich in the respect and love, of all who knew her.
Funeral services were held at Logan church and interment was made in the Rosehill cemetery, at Clark.
