    1. Death: Eva N. HYMER
    2. The LaCygne Weekly Journal Linn County Friday May 12, 1899 Eva N. Hymer. Last Monday afternoon the news spread over our little city that Mrs. Eva N. HYMER, wife of J.O. Hymer, had passed away. To many of our people this was very sudden news as it was not generally known that she was ill. Her sickness was of only a few days duration, when she was called to leave her husband and little children. The deceased was only twenty-two years of age and death seems a cruel blow dealt by Providence. Mr. and Mrs. Hymer have been residents of LaCygne for the past two years, during which time they have won the respect and friendship of all our people. Their home which wa a true happy one and was blest with three bright little children, is now broken--the mother and wife is gone, and the grief can only be fully felt by those who have undergone like sadness. Mrs. Eva N. Hymer was a daughter of Mrs. Carrie B. STRAIGHT,of Paola. It was decided by the relatives that the remains should be buried in the Paola cemetery and on Tuesday afternoon our people assembled at the home and followed the remains to the depot. Passenger Train No. 2 conveyed the deceased and sorrow-stricken relatives to Paola where on Wednesday morning funeral services and interment took place. The friends of Mr. Hymer and family deeply sympathize with them in their irreparable loss.
