"DEATH OF A WELL KNOWN YOUNG LADY. Lulu Landreth Dies at the Home of Her Sister, Northwest of Town".-- Miss Lulu Landreth, who has been making her home of late with her sister, Mrs. Richard Matheny, some four miles northwest of Sidney, quietly passed away Jan. 10, 1907 aged 26 years, 1 month and 19 days. She was born in Morgan county, Ill., in 1881 (sic). Some years ago she with her parents came to Iowa and to this vicinity, where she has spent the most of her intervening years. Some time ago she was converted to the christian faith and united with the M. E. church. Her life has been spent in well doing. Owing to the afflictions of her mother, her brothers and sisters have good cause to remember her with kindness and to mourn their loss. In her last sickness she was resigned and told the friends who were with her that she was reconciled and prepared to die. The funeral services were held at the house, Rev. C. A. Marshall of the Presbyterian church, having charge.Many relatives and friends were present, manifesting their respect for the departed. A goodly delegation from the lodge of Royal Neighbors, of which she was a member, were present and assisted in the singing. After the service the remains were laid to rest in the Lacy Grove cemetery.
