Mrs. Ora LANG, resident of Hillsboro during the greater part of her life, died at her home, 628 Mechanic Street, Sunday morning, June 12th at 6:00. Her health had not been good in recent years, but she had not been bedfast and her unexpected death was a great shock to all that knew her.

The remains are at the Bass Funeral Home in Hillsboro where the funeral service will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2:00. The Rev. DENTON will be the officiant. Burial will be made in Oak Grove Cemetery in Hillsboro.

On September 10, 1902 she was married to Ora L. LANG, son of the late Mr. And Mrs. John LANG of Hillsboro. Nearly all of their married life, of more than 46 years, was spent in this community, except for short periods when they lived in Missouri and elsewhere in this state. Mr. and Mrs. LANG became parents of one of the largest families in the county. 13 children having been born to them, 8 of them are surviving.
