The body of Mrs. Barrett Whittemore was brought to Bowen for burial last Friday from Plankinton, South Dakota where her home has been for the last few years with her adopted daughter, Mrs. Charles Blodgett. Mrs. Whittemore was one of the earliest settlors of Jones County, coming here as a ride in 1846. Most of her life was spent at Bowen’s Prairie and their hospitable home and kindly welcome will be remembered by all old settlors of Jones and Dubuque Counties. A funeral service was held in the church in which she had so often worshiped and of which she had long been a member, conducted by Rev. A. M. Case, of Monticello, and many of her old friends were thus enabled to show their respect and love for her. Mrs. Whittemore was in her 85th year.
