Friday occurred the funeral of Miss Lucy Crosby. She died at her home in Mitchellville, where her brothers and sisters reside. After an illness of many long and tedious months, God saw fit to take her unto His own.

The remains were brought to Hanley, her former home, and the Rev. Mr. Mercer of Prairie City, also a former minister, preached the services.

Lucy was loved by all who knew her, her kind disposition, her always ready smile for everyone, won for her the warm friendship of all those she came in contact with. For several years she has been working in Ankeny, at the hospital for the insane. Many from that place attended the funeral.

Lucy was laid to rest in a lovely white casket with an abundance of floral offerings. Interment made in the St. Charles cemetery beside her parents. Our sympathy is extended to the bereaved members of the family.
