Mrs. Geroux had not been feeling well for the last two days before her demise and only six weeks before having left the hospital where she had been receiving treatment for an attack of pneumonia. Being afflicted with Bright's disease and not being entirely recovered from the effects of pneumonia, combined with the heat probably caused her death. She went to work at the West House on August 29 and intended to work until the end of this week and then take a rest. Wednesday evening at supper, she went about her customary work and showed no sign of illness until about 6:30 when she fainted in the pantry. She was taken outside under the trees and put in a comfortable position till the arrival of Dr. Woodbridge, who did not think the case as serious as later developments proved. For the benefit of the fresh air, she was kept outside till about 11:30, during which time she seemed to regain consciousness two or three times, and then removed to the Blair residence where she had been staying, and died there about 12:30. Her mother and sister were with her at the end, coming down from Lincoln upon receiving a long distance call. About a year ago, she obtained a divorce from Jack Geroux on the grounds of cruelty. Geroux ran a bowling alley in Lincoln for some time and later went to mining. She was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Tofft of Lincoln, and her brother owns the Tofft Mercantile Co. there. The deceased was aged 27* years and leaves a father, mother, sister, and two brothers to mourn her loss. The remains were taken to Lincoln Thursday at Noon, and the funeral will be held there Saturday at 2 o'clock. By her headstone she was 32 years of age. 1900 United States Federal Census about Clara Tofft Name: Clara Tofft Age: 18 Birth Date: Dec 1881 Birthplace: California Father's Name: Robert J Tofft Father's Birthplace: Denmark Mother's Name: Annie M Tofft Mother's Birthplace: California Household Members: Name Age Robert J Tofft 40 Annie M Tofft 37 Clara Tofft 18 Julius Tofft 6 Mabel Tofft 13 Alma Tofft 10 Father: Robert Johnson Tofft Jr. Birth 25 Jan 1858 in Aabenraa, Denmark Death 17 Sep 1940 in Placer, CA Mother: Anna Marie Kier Birth 30 Sept 1869 in CA Death 6 May 1928 in Placer, CA
