Friday morning the sad news of the death of Mrs. Grant Powell was received by her many friends. She had had several bad attacks of the disease before and for sometime her health had been getting worse.
On Thursday afternoon she had been up town and that evening she was visited by her sister-in-law, Mrs. Cotton, sand was apparently feeling good. Friday morning she did not arise at the usual time and her daughter-in-law called her but there was no response and she then opened the door to find Mrs. Powell was dead. A physician was called who thought death had occurred about two hours before.
Rebecca Allen was born Jan. 21, 1859, in Green county, Wisconsin and lived there until 1882, when she was married to Grant Powell and moved with him to Meriden, where they made their home for ten years and then moved to Cherokee, where they have since lived. To them were born four children, one of whom died in infancy. Those remaining are Bert, Byron and Harlan, all of whom reside in Cherokee. She leaves besides her husband and three boys an aged father and mother and two brothers, all of whom reside in Browntown, Wis.
Her brothers, Charles A. Allen and Clarence K. Allen, were at the funeral. She died Friday morning, June 7, 1912. She joined the Methodist Episcopal church in her early life. The funeral services were held at the Methodist Episcopal church conducted by Rev. Charles Elmer Chapler and the body laid to rest in beautiful Oak Hill cemetery.
The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the sorrowing ones because of their loss.
