Scottsburg (IN) Journal, November 11, 1914, p. 1. MRS. GEORGE VEST DEAD Mrs. Lillian Vest, aged 20, died yesterday, Tuesday, at the home of her father-in-law, Emerson Vest, in Johnson Township. She had been at a hospital for treatment and had returned home. On last Friday her attending physician determined that a Caesarian operation should be performed as a last chance to save her life. This was done between midnight and four o'clock Saturday morning by Dr. Garland Sherrill of Louisville, but the patient continued to sink until the end came yesterday at eleven o'clock. Mrs. Vest was a daughter of Robert L. Whitsitt and was known and loved by a large circle of friends who mourn her sad and untimely demise. She had been married to George Vest a year and fifteen days. Besides her husband and parents, she leaves three sisters and one brother, Edgar Whitsitt. The funeral will occur tomorrow, Thursday at ten o'clock from the home of Emerson Vest. The interment will be in Scottsburg Cemetery.
