Young Bride is Called in Death.
Mrs. Harry D. Elliot Succumbs to Attack of Internal Hemorrhage  

Mrs. Harry D. Elliot

"I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write, from henceforth blessed are the dead who die in the Lord, even though saith the Spirit, for they rest from their labors."

The forgoing quotation from the book of revelation carry comfort and solace to the relatives and many friends and admirers of the late Mrs. Harry Elliot, who passed away this last Monday at her home in Gary, Indiana.

Mrs. Elliott until less than two months ago known to the people of this community as Miss Florence Rifenberg, was born at Brookside, Oconto County, in 1891. About thirteen years ago she came with her parents to this city which has been her home since that time until the 26th day of August, when she was married to Mr. Harry D. Elliott and the same day left for her new home in Gary, Ind.

The deceased graduated from our high school, she excepted a position in the post office, and for three years was engaged in that work, during which she acquired a wide acquaintance in the community and being uniformly courteous conduct towards all patrons of the office, aided by cheerful disposition, she won the admiration of the people of this city, and when the telegram was received last Friday from Gary, Ind. announcing her sad death due to internal hemorrhage, the news cast a gloom over the entire community.
