Woman Dies Soon After Reaching Niles

 

Mrs. Charles Davis, 44 years old, died yesterday afternoon about 4:15 o'clock or just about 15 minutes after she had reached Niles from Benton Harbor with her husband and he had established a camp along the river near the French paper mills. The family had been camping out part of the summer in hope of benefitting Mrs. Davis' health,  she having long been a sufferer from a complication of diseases. Two years ago the family lived in Vernon Heights in this city. Besides her husband, Mrs. Davis is survived by one son and by her mother, five brothers, and two sisters. Neither the mother nor the brothers or sisters live near Niles.

The body is at the Troost Company's undertaking rooms where the funeral services will be conducted tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock. Burial will take place in Silver Brook cemetery.

 

Note: Per Michigan Death record Elenora Davis was born in Indiana in 1878, daughter of Mayland Sanders and Catherine Lamb
