From Story County Watchman June 9, 1899

DIED--On Sunday morning Mrs. Roy Crain and her new born infant after an illness of only a couple of days. She was married to Mr. Crain eleven months ago and the life of both had been a happy one and it is has been a hard stroke to all. The funeral took place on Tuesday and was well attended by our citizens who appreciated her many noble qualities. The remains were laid away side by side to await the last call. As a token of their good will and sorrow for the loss sustained by Mr. Crain all the barber shops of the city were closed and the member all attended the funeral thus showing all the sympathy possible. The sympathy of all our people go to the stricken family in this their hour of trouble.
