DIES IN CALIFORNIA

Her many friends in Akron and vicinity learned with deep sorrow and regret
of the death of Mrs. Ed Bryan, Saturday, at her home in Santa Monica,
Calif., says the Akron Register-Tribune.

Mrs. Bryan was formerly Mrs. Minnie Muhs, and was postmistress of Akron for
several years, receiving the appointment to succeed her husband, Henry J.
Muhs, in the early 90’s. She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Bessie
VandeCreek of Yankton, S.D., and Mrs. Fay R. Chamberlin, of Spokane, Wash.

The remains were brought to Akron and burial services conducted Sunday
afternoon at two o’clock in Riverside Cemetery, where interment was made in
the Muhs family lot.
