She had undergone operations and treatment for tumorous and cancerous growths at various times during the past several years. She had been taken to Omaha for treatment two weeks ago last Sunday.
A short service was held for Ida Rowlett at the Nicholas funeral chapel (Palmer, Nebraska) at 10 a.m. last Friday, conducted by Rev. J. J. Clark, assisted by Rev. F. A. Napier. Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Darling sang a due with Miss Ethel Newlon at the piano.
