Rushville Times, Rushville, Schuyler County, Illinois, March 27, 1902 Obituary Leota May Howard, nee Auld, wife of Frank G. Howard, of Jasper, Mo., and daughter of Rev. and Mrs. N. A. Auld, both deceased, who was born June 30, 1879, died Tuesday, February 4, 1902, at the home of her uncle, W. H. Weightman, of near Delmar, Mo., after a severe illness of three weeks, of typhoid fever. On Wednesday preceding her death, she was united in marriage to Frank G. Howard believing she was convalescent and would be in a few days be able to go to the home of her husband had prepared for her. On Monday following her marriage, she suffered a severe relapse, and despite the fact that the best of medical aid had been procured and that she was carefully nursed by loving hands, died Tuesday morning. Since the death of her father, Dec. 1, 1901, she had visited her aged grandparents in Illinois; little thinking she would be first called to the bright home beyond. But only a few days after her return she was stricken with the fever that eventually caused her death. During her father's ministry at Stone's Chapel, Mrs. Howard made many friends here. She was converted and joined with the church at the age of ten, and since has led the life of a true and consistent christian. At the death of her mother in 1895, she tried faithfully to take her mother's place, both in the church and in the home. She endeavored to fill her mother's place in the hearts of her two orphaned brothers; and right well did she succeed. Mrs. Howard was a college student of considerable ability, having attended some of the best colleges, and having graduated twice. She was an accomplished young lady in every particular; this fact, together with her sweet and unassuming nature and meek and gentle christian spirit, won for her a place in which cannot be filled. Only a few hours previous to her death, it is said, she prayed earnestly that the All-wise Father might guide and keep her husband and brothers in the straight and narrow way. She was laid to rest by the side of her mother in Stones Chapel Cemetery. The two brothers of the deceased, Carroll and Charley Auld, from Garrett, Illinois, and J. Thompson, a brother-in-law, and Miss Emma Howard, sister-in-law from Jasper, attended the funeral.
