Mrs. Frank E. HENDERSON formerly Miss Turla Arema McKEE, who was born and reared in Fulton county where she is very well known, died January 19 on the Kentland farm owned by Governor Warren T. McCRAY where she made her home. The husband and 10 children and several brothers and sisters survive. She was an aunt of Mrs. Howard COOK, of this city before striking Rodeffer. [sic ???]

Two well known women of this community, both of whom reached advanced years and both practically life long residents of the county, died Thursday.
Mrs. Martha McKEE died at 8:30 o'clock Thursday morning at her home at 1231 College avenue and Mrs. Lenora A. CLYMER died Thursday morning at the home of her son, Harry CLYMER, of Newcastle township.

Mrs. Martha McKEE, who was 77 years of age, had been in ill health for the past year suffering from heart complaint. She was born in Jennings county, Indiana, but had lived here since she was 13 years of age, moving here with her parents, George and Anne DOWNS.
