HEART DISEASE PROVES FATAL Mrs. Margaret Thomerson died at her home on East 4th Street at 9:30 o'clock last night after an illness of only a few days with heart disease. Funeral services will be held at 2:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon at the Fairview M. E. Church where she was a member, with the Rev. W. F. Russell in charge. Interment will be at Rose Hill. Pallbearers are Roy Humphrey, Winfred Frost, George Eller, John O'Donnel, Phillip Carr and Earl Wingler. Mrs. Thomerson was born in Washington County near Salem, the daughter of Rebecca and Esquire Holsapple. At an early age she was married to George Thomerson who survives. Two children were born to this union: Bert, who died several years ago, and Mrs. Claude Spencer, South Walnut Street. Besides the husband and daughter, the deceased leaves a sister, Mrs. John Peters; a half-brother, Charles Cain; and four grandchildren: Mrs. Ralph Day, Margaret, Marian and Herbert Spencer, all of this city. Mrs. Thomerson was known to her friends and relatives as an earnest worker and a sincere, Christian woman. Her death comes as a great shock to them. For several years she was associated with Mrs. John Peters in operating a boarding house at Madison and 4th streets.
