Mrs. Breeding Is Dead at 84

Iowa Pioneer Illness of Week Fatal.

Mrs. Sarah Carter Breeding, 84, of St. Charles, Ia., died Sunday at her home after a week’s illness. She had been stricken by paralysis.

Mrs. Breeding, an Iowa resident since 1859, was the widow of J.E. Breeding, who died in 1913.

Friends say Mrs. Breeding had missed only two state fairs since 1871, often having camped on the fairgrounds during fair week.

She was a member of the United Brethren church.

Surviving are two sons, R. A. and W. H. Breeding, both of St. Charles, Ia.; a daughter, Mrs. Charles M. O’Brien of Des Moines, and several grandchildren.
