Woods Dies Suddenly at Colorado Springs Many a heart was saddened Sunday moring when Mr. David L. Draper received a telegram announcing the sudden death of his daughter Rosa, at Colorado Springs, Colo. Her death was a sudden one. During the afternoon of Saturday she was well and hearty, but at seven o'clock p.m. she was suddenly stricken with heart failure and all earthly things were done to revive her but to no avail, the Master had called and she had hearkened to his call and without ever regaining consciousness she passed peacefully away at 9 o'clock, Saturday night. The remains were immediately prepared for shipment and arrived here Tuesday morning, accompanied by the sorrowing husband and little daughter 9 months old, his brother Harry of Colorado Springs, and sister Emma of Omaha, who joined them at Kansas City. To sorrow when death enters the home is easier felt than told. That poignant grief when the messenger enters and snatches from the fireside the young wife and mother, cannot be expressed in words. No language is adequate to tell the friends the sadness of the forlorn hope that pervades the home after the last sad rites have been said and done. The earthly ties that joined so closely this young couple are forever severed and a little one is left motherless. In a twinkling of an eye this sudden change in a happy home was made. Life is uncertain. Less than two years ago Rosa left Lone Tree for Colorado a cheerful girl. The climate there even increased her health and she and her husband were prospering and happy. When the sudden call came they were moving into a new home where their surroundings would be more enjoyable, but the joy occasioned was soon turned into a deep sorrow. Rosa E. Draper, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David L. Draper, was born near Lone Tree, Iowa, February 20, 1879 and died at Colorado Springs, Colo., September 13, 1902. The funeral services were conducted from the M. E. church of Lone Tree at 10:30 Sept. 17, 1902, under the direction of the pastor of the Christian church of West Liberty. September 21, 1897, Miss Draper confessed her Savior, uniting with the Christian Church. She remained a true disciple of her Lord and sought to do his will. In January 1901 she moved to Colorado Springs, Colo., where on February 3, following, she was united in marriage to Mr. D. E. Wood, a former citizen of Lone Tree. One child, a little girl, was born to them. She is thus left in tenderest childhood to go through life without a mother's loving care. Besides this little child she leaves husband, father, two brothers and many friends to mourn her early death. She was a good, true young woman and her death is indeed sad. Rosa graduated from the Lone Tree High School with the Class of 1899 and was the first member of the Alumni to be called to her reward. The Alumni association attended the funeral in a body and placed a beautiful floral pillow on the casket of their departed member. W. H. Yakish, Willie Porter, Courtland Delano, Bert Richey, Evan Carl and Bert Kile, Members of the Alumni acted as pallbearers. The funeral was very largely attended. Many from Riverside and elsewhere were present. The sympathy of the community is extended to the husband, and family in this sad bereavement. Submitted by Shirley Carter Dodson
