F. Currie. She graduated from Montello High School in June, 1921 and the same year she entered Oshkosh Normal, and taking a three year course graduated from that institution. In September 1924 she went to Elco, Wis., where she had been engaged to teach school, but a few weeks ago she was obliged to give up her position on account of ill health. Returning to her home here, she remained for one week before going to the hospital in Milwaukee, where on May 12th she underwent a serious operation and it was thought at first she was on the road to recovery, and the highest home was entertained for a complete restoration of health; but in spite of the best medical skill and tender nursing, death relieved her of all suffering, and the Creator took her unto Himself. Death at any time, or under any circumstances, is a shock to us, but when a young person is stricken, we feel it the more...deceased is survived by her parents, one sister and one brother...the funeral will be held this afternoon (Friday) from the M. E. church and interment will be in the village cemetery.
