Follows Father To Grave, Little Evelyn Marshall Huff Cooper Died Day Following Funeral of Claude Cooper
Just twenty-four hours after her father, Claude Cooper, a member of the United States Naval Reserves from Mississippi County had been buried in this city with military honors, his six months old daughter, Evelyn Marshall Huff Cooper, died at the home of her grandmother, Mrs. T. D. Huff, near Charleston. The child's death was due to stomach congestion, and the funeral services were conducted yesterday afternoon at the First Baptist Church by the pastor, the Rev. Albert L. Lemon, with interment in the I.O.O.F Cemetery. The child was born April 5, 1918 and a few days after its birth the mother died. Last week its father, in training at Great Lakes, Ill., died of Spanish influenza, and with the child's death this week, the last of the little family of three has passed away during the last few months, a most unusual and touching circumstance.
