Mrs. LaRose Passed Away

Death Calls Another Well Known Resident Away.

Clara Ethelda Andrus was born in Talmade, Ottawa County Michigan, January 5th 1871, and died at Cayuga, Sargent county, North Dakota, February 10th, 1912, age 41 years,
1 month and 5 days.

Her early childhood was spent in Minnesota, her parents moving to North Dakota in 1880.

On the 28th day of May, 1895 she was united in marriage to Earl J. LaRose. Of this union four children were born, three of which survive her; Cora E., age 14. Grace E., age 10 and Joseph E., age 8.

Mrs. LaRose was taken ill about ten days before her death and a doctor was at once called who pronounced it pneumonia, as the disease gained headway other doctors were called on, and all that skill could do was done, but it was soon seen to be of no avail for she gradually became weaker and last Thursday all hope was given up and her husband, who was taking treatment at Pokagama Sanitarium, Pine City, Minnesota, was notified to come at once. He started immediately to her bedside but his race with death was unavailing as he did not arrive here until Sunday morning, and his wife passed away Saturday afternoon. Her death was peaceful and happy, as she passed away sure of a home in the Great Beyond.

Of a peaceful and sacrificing nature, she sought to live a worthy helpful life and as she was beautiful in mind and action in life so was she in death, before the end came she called her children and friends to her side and with a kind and loving message to them and her absent husband she prepared peacefully to meet what the future was to bring forth, assuring all that she could see the reward awaiting her beyond the grave. When the end came she met it with her customary smile magnified by the bright glimpse she had of the other shore.

She passed from this life to an endless one beyond: She has gone but her works will follow her.

The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon. After a brief prayer at the home the remains were born to the Congregational church in town where were gathered a host of the deceased friends, and where Reverend Moodey of Lidgerwood, delivered a beautiful sermon. He took for his text, that beautiful passage from St. John, "Ye believe in God, believe also in me", and as he talked it seemed as if his listeners could almost catch a glimpse of that home to where the loved one had gone.

The quire was composed of the Misses Gladys Cooper, Mable Jamieson and Nina Dada, Mr. and Mrs. A.C. Dada and W.E. Dada, and the songs they sung were chosen by the deceased
before she died.

The pall bearers were; Frank, Bert, George and Howard Andrus, Marion Silverhorn and Robert Moore. The floral offerings were very beautiful.

Interment was in Hillside cemetery, a large concourse of people following the deceased to her final resting place, where loving and tender hands consigned her body to the tomb.
