THE SILENT REAPER.
Death Claims Several Old Residents During the Past Week.

FLORA BOYD.
A telegram was received Sunday evening from St. Paul telling of the death at 1:30 that afternoon of Miss Flora Boyd, daughter of Frank Boyd, at the home of her uncle at Wendall, Minn., where she had gone for a visit. The deceased was born in Decorah about twenty-eight years ago but went to Minneapolis with her parents when she was a little child. She developed musical talent to a marked degree and became a capable violinist as well as a successful teacher of music, and was possessed of qualities which won and retained the friendship of all who learned to know her. The cause of her death was diabetes. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o’clock.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows she was born in 1877 and is buried in the Lakewood Cemetery in Minneapolis, MN
