Mary Young

Last Friday night Calvin Baum and Mrs. John Barum returned from Kansas where they had been called by the death of Mrs. Mary Young, a sister of the Messrs. Baum of this place. They in company with the husband, J. H. Young, brought the remains here for burial. The funeral took place in the M.E. church at 11 o'clock a.m. conducted by Rev. Neville, of the United Bethren church. The burial took place at the Carlisle Grove cemetery. The church was filled to overflowing and some had to go away as they could not get in the home. Mrs. Young was about 35 years. She was raised, near Garrison and was a successful school teacher, having taught in this vicinity a number of years and consequently had a wide acquaintance and a large number of friends. The pall bearers were young men of her own age. She leaves a husband and the little boy two years old to mourn her death, besides mother, brothers and sisters and a host of friends who sympathize with the family in their affliction. }
