AN EARLY RESIDENT Mrs. Mary (Ewing) Shook, widow of the late Calvin Shook, died suddenly Monday morning at 3:45 oclock [sic] in her home at Sharpsville. Death was due to heart trouble following a few days of illness which bordered on pneumonia. The aged woman and her daughter Bertha lived together. Shortly after midnight, the daughter was aroused by her mother, who needed attention, but at that time the sick woman apparently was no worse than she had been for several days. A few hours later the daughter again was aroused and found her mother dying. Death came in a few minutes. Mrs. Shook, who was born in Holmes county, Ohio, Sept. 12, 1851, was the daughter of James and Ruth (Richards) Ewing. She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Ethel Twembly, of Indianapolis, and Miss Bertha Shook, at home. she is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Emma Harding, of Akron, O., and one brother, John Ewing, of Dayton, O. She is also survived by five grandchildren and two step-daughters, Pearl Scherer, of Indianapolis, Bessie Shook, of Houston, Tex., and a stepson D. E. Shook, of this city. Mrs. Shook had been a resident of Tipton county since 1874, having made her home with her uncle, Samuel Richards and wife, three miles north of Tipton, until her marriage to Thomas Dellinger in 1876. The husband died in1880, leaving her with one daughter, who is now Mrs. Twembly. Her marriage to Calvin Shook took place March 13, 1890, at the home of the uncle. The late Martha Smith performed the ceremony. Mr. Shook died in 1922, and the widow and daughter Bertha have made their home together. Mrs. Shook was a brother of the late James K. Shook, Luther Shook, Mrs. America Grishaw and Miss Hattie Shook, of Tipton. Mrs. Shook was a devout member of the Methodist church in Sharpsville and when her health permitted was regular in her attendance, and was one of the fine Christian women of Sharpsville, with a large circle of friends.
