Highly Esteemed Lady Succumbs Today After a Prolonged Illness
The many friends of Mrs. Amos C. Foote were shocked and pained to learn of her death which occurred this morning about 10 o'clock at the family home two miles east of the city on Yankee street.
Mrs. Foote has for over a year been a sufferer from cancer of the . . .[illegible]. . . but each time she had rallied and was able to be up again. Thus, while her death was in a measure not unexpected it was not thought that the end was so near.
Mrs. Foote was formerly Miss Lottie Bradbury, a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. D.S. Bradbury.
She was born in Springfield, O., 54 years ago last Thursday. With her parents she came to Niles 43 years ago and had since resided here.
Her marriage to Mr. Foote occurred 19 years ago. The husband and two daughters and one son, the Misses Lydia and Stella and Andrew C. Foote Jr., comprise the family circle who are thus bereft of devoted wife's and mother's care.
Mrs. Foote was a noble christian lady and her demise is sincerely mourned by a large number of friends who sympathize with the family in thier deep bereavement.
The funeral will be held from the late residence Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. Interment will occur at Silver Brook.
