RITES FOR MRS. TIGHT WILL BE HELD FRIDAY

ZEARING—Funeral services for Mrs. Eunice Tight, 91, of Zearing, who died Tuesday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Carl Davenport, in Marshalltown, will be held Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Christian church in St. Anthony. Interment will be in the Illinois Grove cemetery. The Rev. Mr. Bacon, pastor of the Methodist church at Marshalltown, will be in charge.

Mrs. Tight, for years a resident of the Illinois Grove community in Liberty township, Marshall county, had gone to Marshalltown about two months ago for a visit with her daughter and was taken ill shortly after arriving there. After a long residence in Liberty township, the Tight family located in St. Anthony, where Mr. Tight died in 1927. About two years ago Mrs. Tight and her daughter, Ollie, moved to Zearing, and they had resided here since.

Besides the daughters, Ollie and Mrs. Davenport, she is survived by three sons, Charles and George of Zearing and Ralph of St. Anthony, and two other daughters, Mrs. Cora M. Mosteller of Zearing, and Mrs. Vinnie Mooney of Clemons.
