The Sunday Gazetteer Sunday, September 14, 1884 pg. 1 IN MEMORIAM On the 6th inst., at 5:30 p.m., death visited the household of Mr. Frank G. Addison and bore away the spirit of his wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Adams. Her illness was long and lingering, yet she had been a patient sufferer. She was a devout member of the Catholic church, and in her dying moments her faith was unshaken, and she passed away as one fully confident of the realization of all that church promises to the just after death. Mrs. Addison was the daughter of Mr. B.C. Carey; she was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, twenty-seven years ago; she came to Denison in 1875; and was married to Frank Addison last February. Her remains were interred in the old cemetery last Sunday, in the family burial lot. The funeral procession that followed her remains to their last resting place was the largest we have seen in this city - over one hundred carriages and buggies being in line. She was an estimable lady, loved and admired by all whom she came in contact, and her premature demise is universally deplored. Besides the host of friends who weep over her grave, she left three brothers and two sisters, who have the sympathy of the Gazetteer.
