September 18, 1878 Maple Valley Era, Ida Grove, Iowa
Miss Rose Smith, daughter of William Smith of Danbury, died at her father’s residence, September 2, of typhoid fever. She was to have been married in a few weeks, but death claimed her for his bride, and her bridal robes became her winding sheet. A large circle of friends mourn her departure. Aged 19 years, 11 months, 15 days.
