MRS. M. GREENUP PASSES AWAY

Funeral Services Sunday Afternoon From The Home; Interment at Evergreen

Mrs. Manuel (sic - Emanuel) GREENUP passed away last night at 12:15 o'clock at her home, 108 East Adams street. Mrs. GREENUP had retired in her usual good health and her daughter, Jessie, who was sleeping in an adjoining room was awakened, to find her mother in a very critical condition. Death was probably due to heart trouble. Funeral services will be held from the home Sunday afternoon in charge of Rev. B. F. Hubbard of Clarinda, former pastor of this city. Interment will be made at Evergreen cemetery. Laura GREENUP was born September 22, 1860, in Lincoln county Missouri. She came to this city in 1883. Her husband and one daughter Mrs. Jessie ARMISTEAD and one granddaughter, Edna, survive her.
