The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, August 15, 1907

BESSIE, daughter of MR. and MRS. DAVID DAVIS, of Cleveland, Iowa, was born
in Monroe County, Iowa, Jan. 30, 1893, and died at her home in Cleveland,
August 11, 1907, aged 14 years, 6 months and 12 days. Little BESSIE has
been a sufferer from dropsy and heart failure for 6 months, when the Great
Deliverer came to her rescue. She was a patient sufferer in bearing her
affliction. While in health she paid her best respects to the S.S. and
church services.

BESSIE was a lovable child, obedient to her parents and loved her associates
Her presence will be greatly missed in the home, being the only daughter,
leaving the father, mother and two brothers to mourn their loss. The
funeral services were conducted by Rev. M.S. Clark, at the Baptist Church in
Chariton, and interment made in the Chariton Cemetery. Bereaved ones have
the sympathy of the many friends.
