DEATH OF MRS. RAMSAY

Mrs. Flora Ramsay, wife of A. P. Ramsay, died at her home Tuesday morning at 4 o'clock of tuberculosis. Mrs. Ramsay has been an invalid for the last five years and at times her condition seemed so bad that friends and physicians looked for her death any moment. For the last few weeks she was feeling much worse than ever before and her sufferings became so great that death came as a great relief. She leaves a husband and two little boys to mourn the loss of a gentle wife and mother. The funeral will take place this afternoon from the family residence, 801 W. Bleeker. The deceased was a member of the Methodist Church and the funeral ceremony will be in charge of Rev. Ellis if he returns from the Central City conference in time. He was telegraphed for but it is not certain whether he can make connections in time. The relatives of the deceased reside in Canada and Mr. Ramsay has not decided whether to bury her remains here or to ship them home.

NOTE: Both Mr. and Mrs. Ramsay are buried at Red Butte Cemetery
