News of the death last night of Miss Bessie B. Applegate at Pasadena comes as a severe shock to a host of friends and relatvies in Klamath county. She died following an attack of pneumonia.
Born and raised in Klamath County, where the greater part of her life has been spent, she was unusually well known and respected. She was one of the most popular teachers ever identified with the Klamath high school facility, and praises of her work are continually sung by the students who were enrolled in her classes.
Miss Applegate was 37 years of age. She was born at Brookside, in Swan Lake Valley and attended school in the county. Following her graduation and a post graduate course at Leland Stanford, she accepted a position as instructor in the local high school, where she remained for a number of years.
For the past eighteen months she had been engaged as intructor in English at the Pasadena high school.
Miss Applegate is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lucien B. Applegate of the Brookside ranch at Swan Lake. She is also survived by two brothers, Elmer I. and Fred. L. and three sisters, Mrs. C.C. Chitwood, Miss Evelyn Applegate and Miss Elsie Applegate. The latter left on the train this morning with Mrs. Jennie Hurn for Pasadena.
