Mrs. S. K.
Hoover Died Early Today
Mrs.
Sarah Ketura Hoover, wife
of O. [swald] Hoover
and mother of F. [rancis] O. [swald] Hoover,
died this morning about 5 o'clock at a local hospital after an illness
of about two weeks. An
operation was performed a week ago from which she failed to rally and
despite the best of care her condition grew steadily worse until her
death this morning.
Mrs.
Hoover, with Mr. Hoover, came to Modesto in June 1911, from Lompoc, Santa
Barbara County, and in her two years' residence here had made many friends.
A woman of unusual abilities, she was always ready to do well
the duties that came to her as a member of any organization, and her
kindly spirit made her a friend to everyone she met.
Mrs. Hoover had been a member of the Presbyterian Church since
childhood. She was a member of the Rebekahs, the Eastern Star and The
Pythian Sisters, her membership in these orders being still at Lompoc. She was also among the interested
workers in the Modesto Woman's Improvement club. In all the organizations to which she belonged she was always
to be counted among the workers.
Mrs.
Hoover was born at Monmouth,
Illinois, August 1, 1852, her maiden name being Sarah Ketura Hardenbrook. She
was one of a family of 13 children, six of whom are now living. Her surviving brothers and sisters are:
C. [harles] K.[elly] Hardenbrook,
Lompoc, California; Allan Hardenbrook, Missoula, Montana; Richard Hardenbrook and Shannon Hardenbrook, Bedford, Iowa; L. [ewis] D.[uff] Hardenbrook, Wakefield, Kansas, and Mrs. Juliet Bristol, Marathon, Iowa. Mrs. Hoover was graduated from Monmouth College, Illinois,
with the class of 1872. Mrs.
Hoover was married to
Mr. Hoover at Viola,
Illinois, January 31, 1882 and immediately went to make their home at
Bedford, Iowa. They resided at Bedford until April 1890
at which time they came to California, settling first in Los Angeles
County and a year later at Lompoc, Santa Barbara County. The family resided at Lompoc for 20 years,
coming from there to Modesto.
Mrs.
Hoover is survived by
the husband and three children.
The children are Attorney F. [rancis] O. [swald] Hoover of Modesto, B. [enjamin] B. [uford] Hoover of Lompoc, and H. [ubert] D. [on] Hoover of Los Angeles.
The
funeral will be held Friday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from the Presbyterian
church. The services will
be conducted by Rev. H. K. Pitman, pastor of the church, and interment
will be made in the Modesto Citizens' Cemetery.
The
body is now at the undertaking parlors of Bowker & Wood.

Obituary
Friends
of the family were shocked Thursday morning when the report was circulated
on the streets that R. [ichard] L. [ockwood] Hardenbrook had died early that morning. Deceased was stricken with paralysis some
weeks ago, but to all appearances he was slowly recovering from the
stroke and it was hoped by his friends he could regain his usual health. On Monday he came down town and appeared
to be feeling as well as usual, but on Monday afternoon he suffered
greatly and Tuesday morning sank into unconsciousness from which he
was never aroused, quietly passing away at 4 o'clock Thursday morning.
Richard
Lockwood Hardenbrook was
born Sept. 27, 1842 at Mt. Gilead, Morrow County, Ohio, and at the age
of 9 moved with his parents to Monmouth, Ill., where he lived until
1871, when he moved to Iowa, locating on a farm northwest of Bedford,
living there until 1891, when he came to Bedford, where he has since
resided.
Deceased
served nearly three years in the civil war, enlisting in an Illinois
regiment in 1861. March
14, 1867, he was married at Galesburg, Ill., to Miss Cornelia D.
Wilbur and to this union 11 children were born, seven of
whom, with his wife, survive him.
The
children are Madge and

Wilbur, Acton, Mont.;

Died,
Hollis, infant daughter

Iowa, at 2 a. m. Tuesday,
March 20, 1894, aged about 8 months.
Little
Hollis had been seriously ill for about 10 days previous to her death
with cerebral spinal meningitis, and although the best medical skill,
and the kind ministrations of the parents and neighbors were exercised
in her behalf, it was of no avail as the angel of death had claimed
its own, and the parents and friends bow in humble submission to the
decree of providence. The funeral services were held at the
home of the parents, at 11 a. m. Wednesday, and were conducted by Rev.
J. C. Lewis, of the Baptist church of this city. Interment was made in the Bedford cemetery.
