NELLIE STILES, Patterson

Nellie Stiles was born in Patterson, December 15, 1889. She died March 1st, 1907, aged 17 years, 2 months and 16 days. Her fatal illness was due to uremic poisoning and all that loving hands and professional skill could do proved of no avail. She passed away after an illness of a few days.

Bright, happy and cheerful, Nellie carried sunshine with her wherever she went. She always had a smile and a pleasant word for her friends. Her death comes as a dark shadow and when the sad news spread over our little village it left sorrow and the expressions of sympathy for the bereaved ones were many and sincere. A father, mother and three sisters are left to mourn her untimely death.

Funeral services were held on Sunday conducted by Rev. Wm. Mercer, pastor of the M.E. church and the interment was made at Montpelier cemetery.
