MRS. GEORGE M. PRATT DIES IN CALIFORNIA

Former Winterset Resident Succumbed Saturday to Heart Attack

Word was received here this week, of the death of Mrs. Lena Pratt, wife of Dr. George M. Pratt, last Saturday at Ontario, Calif.

Mrs. Pratt was a native of Winterset and lived her entire life here until five years ago, when she and Doctor Pratt moved to California to make their home with her sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Howell.

Her death occurred in a hospital in that city following a brief illness with a heart affection.

Mrs. Pratt was the former Lena Leota Duff of Winterset. During her long life in this community she was a prominent citizen. She was affiliated with the Presbyterian church here, and was a member of the P.E.O. sisterhood.

Funeral services were conducted at Ontario Sunday in charge of the Rev. Roy Ruth of the First Methodist church. Burial was made at Bellevue cemetery there.
