Mrs. Dorcas McBRIDE, 63 years old died at her home a mile west of Libertyville yesterday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. Brief funeral services will be held at the home tomorrow morning at 9:30 o'clock and the body then will be taken to Center chapel, southeast of Keosauqua where longer services will be held at 12:30 o'clock. They will be in charge of Rev. W.N. Glotfelty. Interment will be in a nearby cemetery.

Mrs. McBRIDE's husband died a number of years ago. She is survived by the following sons and daughters: Mrs. Ellen LOOMIS of Eldon, Mrs. Nancy RILEY of Salem, Mrs. Bessie FOWLER and Mrs. Dollie HUSTON of near Keosauqua, Arthy McBRIDE of Farmington, Don McBRIDE of Cleveland, Ohio, and Reuben McBRIDE who lives at the old home.

(I research the McBRIDE lineage. Surname was NEWLAND - daughter of Jacob NEWLAND and Angeline COOMBS.)
