Mrs. Fulk died at the Kennelworth Hospital in Clarinda, Friday, Sept. 26, 1919, to which hospital she had been taken earlier the same day. Thus short was her fatal illness. Mrs. Fulk's maiden name was McCalla, she being the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. B. McCalla of Harlan township, where she was born Sept. 28, 1893. At the time of her death she lacked only two days of being 26 years of age. Her mother died about sixteen years ago. Annabelle McCalla attended the public school at Olive Branch in the township where she was born, and later was a student in the high school at College Springs, from which she graduated. She was a member of the Reformed Presbyterian church of Harlan township and of the Sunday school of that church. In the Sunday school she had been a teacher and assistant superintendent. She was married to Ray E. Fulk also of Harlan township, at the home of her father, Nov. 12, 1918, and the happy married life of herself and husband now has been broken by, the visitation of death in a little more than ten months after their wedding day. The funeral was held Monday, Sept. 29, at 10 a.m. at the Reformed Presbyterian church, so familiar to her in her lifetime. The officiating minister was the pastor, Rev. S. J. Johnston. The singers were Mrs. Arch Tippin, Mr. and . Mrs. Guy J. Black, Mrs. Elwood Stewart and Miss Elsie McKeown. They sang the Thirty-first and Twenty-third Psalms.

Mrs. Ray Fulk
Mrs. Annabelle McCalla Fulk passed from us on September 26th, at the Kennelworth Hospital in Clarinda. The funeral was held Monday afternoon, Sept. 29th, from the Reformed Presbyterian Church south of Clarinda, conducted by the pastor, Rev. S. J. Johnston, the form of the loved one being laid to rest in the same lot with the mother who passed on before. Annabelle McCalla was born Sept. 28th, 1893, being the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. B. McCalla living on the farm southwest from Clarinda. She was an exceptionally bright and loving girl, graduating at College Springs high school in the spring of 1914. Her mother having died when the girl was but nine years old, she became the homekeeper for her father, and has been very happy in her life, being married Nov. 12th, 1918 to Ray Fulk, when the young people went to live on their own farm west of Shambaugh. The day before she was taken ill she rode with her father to Burlington Junction, seemingly well and happy. Upon returning home she was taken with convulsions, due to approaching childbirth, and was brought to the hospital as a means of saving her life, but this proved impossible. Her church life has always been happy, having united with the Reformed Presbyterian Church Oct. 1st, 1911, and been an active worker, as Sunday School teacher, and for a time assistant superintendent of the Junior Band. Her husband and her father, who are left to mourn the loss of this loved one, have he sympathy of many sorrowing friends. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Oct 2, 1919
