Mrs. Leedham of Mt. Pleasant
Mt. Pleasant, Ia Aug,. 7 – Mrs. Sarah Leedham passed away at her home on South Adams street this afternoon at 3 o’clock after a few days of illness. Last Friday she sustained a fall and while she appeared to receive no serious injuries, her age was such that she could not rally from the shock she received. She is past eighty years of age and has been a resident here for many years. She made her home with her son, Mr. Henry Leedham, who is employed at Desh’s harness shop.
