Mrs. Ethan Roberts

Funeral services for the late Mrs. Ethan Roberts, a report of whose death appeared in the last issue of this paper, were held at Reinbeck last Friday. The remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Grundy Center Friday afternoon.

Mrs. Roberts was 42 years old at the time of her death. Her illness from cancer covered a period of nearly two years. She submitted to an operation at Rochester a year ago and for a time it was believed the old trouble had been removed but some time later it returned and nothing further could be done to check its growth.

Mrs. Roberts' maiden name was Pearl Stuck. She was born at Morrison October 30, 1884, and grew to young womanhood in that community. Dec. 24, 1903, she was married to Ethan A. Roberts and they made their home for a number of years on a farm in Grant township, moving then to Minnesota for two years, and two years ago moving to South Dakota, where they lived at Doland and Raymond.

She was the mother of four children, all of whom are living. These are three sons, Ethan, Clare and Russell, and one daughter, Cleo. The husband also remains to mourn her death.
