Funeral services were held at the First Presbyterian Church this morning,

[ranklin] Ginn and with her
parents moved to Lenox when nine years old. She attended the Lenox schools and
was a graduate from the high school in the class of 1910, after which she
taught one term of school. She then entered the Lincoln Sanitarium at Lincoln,
Neb., pursuing the regular course, and graduated as a trained nurse June 20,
1914. She had worked very hard during her stay at this institution and came
home for a short rest. In July she began the work of her profession and was on
a case, when stricken with rheumatism. The malady was of such a character that
she was compelled to give up her work and return home. She sought relief in
various ways, about two weeks ago going to Bernice, Okla., with her sister, to
spend a few weeks under the care of her brother-in-law, Dr. Clark. She seemed to be improving, and had hopes of
recovery when the rheumatism attacked her heart. At the age of fourteen Miss
Ginn united with the Presbyterian
Church at Lenox and remained an active and interested worker. The body was
brought to Bedford Wednesday.
