The deceased was taken sick a year ago last spring with catarrh and was under the doctor's care all summer, then got better so she was able to do her work through the winter but was taken sick again last June and rapidly grew worse until the end came. Eliza A. Corey [Coldy] was born in Henry county, Illinois, May 11, 1846, and was married to Edward D. Harrison February 19, 1868, [in Henry county] moving to Iowa about 20 years ago during which time she has been living on their farm one mile south of Cromwell. She leaves six children, five sons, Wilbur, L[ouie] U[lysses], Charles and Bert of this place and Frank, who has commenced traveling in Minnesota for a wall paper firm in Des Moines, and one daughter, Mrs. Archie Johnston [Jennie] of Yorktown, this state, and three little grandsons, and a brother and sister in Illinois. The children were all at her bedside when she passed away, except Frank, who came to the funeral. A trained nurse from Creston was with her during the last week. The funeral was held in the Congregational church Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock and the remains were interred in the Cromwell cemetery. Rev. L. E. Potter read the scripture lesson and Rev. W. C. Hicks from Union, this state, a former pastor of the Congregational church of which the deceased was a member, preached the sermon, coming especially for the occasion. Three songs were rendered by a quartet consisting of Rev. L. E. Potter, W. S. Mills, Misses Fairy Sparr and Edith Hitchcock, Miss Edith Ours being the organist. The pall-bearers were R. Colbert, G. R. Sheets, J. H. Ours, J. S. Stahlnecker, B. F. Waltman and L. Hitchcock. There were three floral offerings, one from the children with the word "Mother" on it, one from relatives in Chicago, and a bouquet of white asters from Mrs. C. H. Bacon of Creston. The text was from Mark 14:8, "She hath done what she could," which Mrs. Hicks chose. There was a large attendance at the funeral, a number coming from abroad. Among those who attended the funeral from abroad were Mr. [Theodore] Corey [Coldy], a brother, and Miss Alice Quirk, a niece, both from Illinois, Mr. and Mrs. C. H.
