Miss Rose Sheaffer died Sunday at the Methodist Hospital in Des Moines where she was studying to become a nurse. Miss Sheaffer’s death puzzled the physicians and an autopsy was held Monday and a peculiar growth in the membranes of the stomach was learned to be the cause of her death. The remains were shipped to her parents at Patterson. The funeral was held from the house Wednesday. Miss Sheaffer has many friends in Winterset, having lived for a year or more at the home of J. J. Gaston.
