MRS. MONTGOMERY DIED YESTERDAY

Mrs. Marshall Montgomery died at the family residence in this city Sunday morning at three o'clock. Death was due to infirmities brought on by old age.

Mrs. Montgomery had been in extremely poor health for several years and about two weeks ago she suffered what seemed to be stroke which hastened her death. From Illinois, their former home, she moved to Iowa in 1892 with her husband and children going onto a farm in Milford township. In 1902 Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery moved to Nevada where they have continued to reside. Both while living in the country and in town she formed a wide circle of friends who will mourn her passing. She leaves to mourn her death besides her husband, three sons, Charles C. and Arch of this city and Frank of Mason City. Two other children have preceded her in death. The funeral services will be held on Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the Methodist church the services being in charge of Rev. R. M. Shipman.
