Mrs. W.W. Beebe is Called
Succumbs Tuesday after a Long Illness
at her Home. Private Funeral Friday P.M.

Mrs. W.W. Beebe was summoned by death at her home in Paullina Tuesday evening between the hours of five and six. She had been ailing since last January from stomach trouble. Last spring she was taken to the Mayo Bros. hospital at Rochester for treatment but no permanent aid could be given. Her decline has been slow but perceptible until the last few weeks when it could be seen that the end was near. Alll that the tender care of loved ones and medical aid could do was done for her but the messenger of death would not be denied.

Mrs. Beebe was a lady who enjoyed the close friendship of many and the high regard of all who knew her. Her life had been spent mostly in her home in the training of her family and the performance of her duties as a wife. In her earlier life she was a member of the Christian church but she transferred her membership from that church to the local Presbyterian church, in whose activities she ws always an active and zealous worker.

A private funeral will be held at the family home Friday afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. H.F. Williams of the Presbyterian church officating. Interment will be at Prairie View Cemetery.

Mary B Adams was born in Cleveland, Ohio, July 9, 1847, where she grew to young womanhood. In 1874 she was united in marriage to D.B. Judd. To this union six children were born, four of whom survive the mother. They are Frank Judd of Windom, Minn., Miss May Bell Judd Philby of Hospers, Ia., Miss Harriett Judd of Paullina, and Howard Judd of Newport, Wash.

Mr. and Mrs. Judd came to Iowa in 1874 taking up their home at Mechanicsville. In 1882, they came to this county, locating in Baker Township. Her the family made its home for years.
