August 17, 1898 -- January 27, 1920

Death invaded the Junior class of the college the night of January 27, 1920, and summoned Miss Luella Beveridge, who had been ill for a week and had been taken to the hospital for care a couple of days before the end came. Miss Beveridge was prominent in several branches of work in the college and was also a member of the choir at the Second United Presbyterian church. She was born at Sandwich, Ill., in 1898, but the family had moved to Goldfield, Iowa, and her remains were taken there for burial. She was survived by her parents, and one sister and two brothers, who were also students in Monmouth college.
