Sudden Death of Mrs. I. W. Young

Verona, Oct 3 -- The people of this vicinity were painfully shocked yesterday morning by the announcement that Mrs. Jennie Tuttle Young, wife of I. W. Young, had passed away during the night. Mrs. Young had apparently been in her usual health up to the hour of retiring on Saturday evening. At 10:30, her husband has awakened by her heavy breathing and found her unconscious . Very soon she ceased to breathe. So suddenly had death stolen into the home. Mrs. Young was born in Utica in 1844. She had resided in Verona about 40 years. She was married to Mr. Young six years ago. In 1866 she became a member of the Presbyterian Church of Verona and had been an earnest worker as a Sunday school teacher, a member of the King�s Daughters� circle and of the woman�s Christian Temperance Union. She was a woman of sterling character, faithful to the church and its interests, a devoted wife, a loyal friend, a true woman in every relation in life. Beloved by all who knew her, her departure brings to many a sense of personal loss. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved family. The funeral will be held at the family residence near Tilden Hill on Wednesday afternoon. (Note Burial ion Verona Cemetery)
