Died at the home of her father, Wm. Cook in Earlham Saturday morning, Miss Ora Cook aged fifteen years. Funeral services were conducted at the Friends’ church by Rev. McGrew, Sabbath at 2 o’clock. Interment took place at the Bear Creek cemetery.

After many weeks of patient suffering the young life went out leaving many heavy hearts. But Ora knew in whom she believed and calmly breathed a prayer for loved ones whom she would leave, peacefully passed into the land which God alone prepares for those who love him. The many friends of the heartbroken family extended their deep sympathy in their sad bereavement.
