MRS. R.J. STONER UNABLE TO WIN FIGHT FOR LIFE
Her condition having taken a sudden change for the worse, Mrs. Richard J. Stoner, 868 Monroe Street, passed away at the Galesburg hospital at 4:20 o'clock Sunday morning.
Two years ago Mr. and Mrs. Stoner took a trip to the Ozark mountains in the hope of improving the health of Mrs. Stoner. She returned greatly relieved, but soon afterward began failing again. During the past two years she has experienced three paralytic strokes. She had been bedfast for many weeks.
A week ago last Friday Mrs. Stoner was taken to the Galesburg hospital. At that time she was in a very serious condition, but by Saturday she appeared to be greatly improved. She was feeling better and much stronger. Arrangements were made to take her home Sunday morning.
She became worse again about 9:30 o'clock Saturday evening. It was evident then that she could not last but a few hours. Relatives were called to the bedside and remained with her until the end came at 4:20 o'clock in the morning. She passed into unconsciousness about an hour before her death. Present at the bedside when she passed away were Richard J. Stoner, her husband; Leslie Stoner, her son; T.E. Johnson, her brother; Mrs. Johnson and Miss Minnie Peterson, an aunt.
Before her marriage Mrs. Stoner was Miss Lillian Johnson of this city. She was born on July 24, 1865, and was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Johnson, both of whom are now dead. She attended the public schools here, Knox College, and was a student in the art department of St. Joseph's Academy for a time.
On August 20, 1890, she was united in marriage to Richard J. Stoner. To this union there was born one son, Leslie Stoner, who lives at home. Mrs. Stoner was a member of the First Baptist Church and was active in the work of the church until her health began to fail. She was a charter member of the Ladies' Auxillary to the O.B.C. and was also a member of the Ladies' Auxillary of the B. or R.T. No. 6.
Besides her husband and son, Mrs. Stoner was devoted to her home. She was loved by a wide circle of friends.
