Obituary

  Mrs. Jennie Paul Sullivan died at noon today at the home of her son, Claude Paul, in this city. She was suddenly stricken at the Earl Reed home, where she was employed as housekeeper. Her malady was diabetes. Mr. Reed went home from his work last evening and found Mrs. Paul lying unconscious on the rear porch of the place. A physician was summoned at once and the lady taken to the home of her son, Pat. She never regained consciousness, except to show a few symptoms of life twice during the night. The end came today. The funeral services will be conducted from the home Friday afternoon by Rev. E. S. Mencher, pastor of the local Methodist church, and burial will be made in Oak Hill cemetery, south of town.
  The deceased lady was born Jennie Page, on a farm four mile east of Lenox, August 19, 1876. At the time of her death, she was aged 52 years, and one month. Practically all of her life was spent in this neighborhood. She was married September 6, 1893, in Corning, to George H. Paul and to them were born four children, all of whom survive their mother. The husband died some years ago. The children are Mrs. Frank Swain, Casper, Wyo., Claude A. Paul, Corning; Mrs. C. L. Pederson, Casper, Wyo., and W. F. Paul, Corning; In addition, the lady leaves her aged mother, Mrs. George Page, of Lenox, eight grandchildren, three sisters and a brother. The latter are: Mrs. Mart Hayes, Lenox; Mrs. Arthur Nichols, Orient; Mrs. William Steinkamp, Clear Lake, Iowa, and Ham Page, of Ottawa, Kans. The daughters, from Wyoming are in Corning at the present time.
  The deceased lady has been suffering from diabetes for some time, and gradually failing; but the end came very suddenly and unexpectedly for her loved ones, to whom she devoted herself. She was a kind hearted sympathetic woman who worked hard and got much satisfaction in doing kindly deeds for those whom she esteemed.
