    3. No source noted, penciled date of February 13, 1931, from an unidentified scrapbook of clippings titled COLLECTION OF LOCAL MONROE COUNTY OBITS donated to the Monroe County History Center, Bloomington, Indiana. MRS. DANIELS FOUND DEAD Mrs. Nancy Daniels, age 72, was found dead in bed at 10:30 AM today by her daughter, Mrs. Oscar Jones, with whom she had been living. She had been in failing health for the past two years and death was believed to have been due to a heart attack brought on by the weakened condition induced by her age. Mrs. Jones, who is employed at the Star Store, had risen as usual and left her mother in bed when she came downtown. Mrs. Daniels was not confined to her bed by illness but was not accustomed to rising early. When her daughter returned home shortly after 10:30 AM, she found her mother dead in bed. Mrs. Daniels was well known among the older residents of the city. She was born in this county on March 5, 1858, the daughter of Joseph and Julia Gardner, and had spent her entire life in the community. She was a member of the Fairview M. E. Church. Her husband, Joseph Daniels, died nine years ago, and since his death she has made her home among her children. She is survived by four daughters, Mrs. Ed. Rairden, Mrs. Ira McDowell, Mrs. Oscar Jones and Mrs. Guy Hill; one son, Robert Daniels; three sisters, Mrs. Joseph Rice, Mrs. Amanda Prow and Mrs. Mattie Kaser, and one brother, William Gardner. One daughter, Mrs. Curtis Damrell, died recently, and a sister, Mrs. Hettie Smith, died last fall. Funeral arrangements have not been completed.
