The death of Mrs. Sherman Frizzell, which occurred Friday afternoon at 4:35 o'clock at her home on North Fifth street, brought sorrow to a large circle of friends of the well known and highly estimable young woman. Mrs. Frizzell became ill with influenza about a week ago and few days ago pneumonia developed which resulted in her death.
Mrs. Frizzell, whose maiden name was Ruth Ausmus, was born in Niles Sept. 2, 1893, and had spent her entire life here. She was married in Niles on March 4, 1914, to Sherman Frizzell, who is a brakeman in the employ of the Michigan Central Railway Co. About two years ago they purchased the bungalow built by Guy Whelan on North Fifth street and where they have since resided.
Mrs. Frizzell is survived by her husband, her mother, Mrs. August Ausmus, of North Eleventh street; four brothers, Charles C. and George F. Ausmus of North Twelfth street and Ralph Ausmus of North Eleventh street, Niles, and John Ausmus of Kalamazoo, and by two sisters, Mrs. David Evick, Cass street, and Mrs. Edward Punderson, 1329 North Eleventh street. The father of the deceased died four years ago.
The deceased was a member of Niles hive, No. 39.
The funeral services will be held Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence. Rev. P.G. Saffran of St.John's church will officiate. Interment will occur at Silver Brook cemetery.
Mrs. S.E. Frizzell died at her home, North Fifth street, yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock, following an illness of a week with influenza which developed into pneumonia. Her condition became much worse Thursday and all efforts of her physician to save her life were fruitless.

Five years ago, March 4, 1913, she married S.E. Frizzell of this city.
Besides her husband she is survived by her mother, Mrs. Kate Ausmus, four brothers, Charles C., George F. and Ralph Ausmus, of this city and John of Kalamazoo, and two sisters, Mrs. Ed. Punderson and Mrs. David Evick of Niles.
