Interment was in the Hatch cemetery. Following were the pallbearers: George Hatch, Claude Ramsey, Henry Cady, Clyde Cook, J.C. Anderson and Bert Wilson.
Lulu Alice Turner was born November 13, 1984 near Uniontown, and died September 15, 1939, aged 54 years, 10 months and two days. Her death followed an operation Friday morning. She was the daughter of John W. and Eliza Jane Brown Turner.
She was married March 8, 1905, to Odie Pool of Bronson, Kas.
Besides her husband, she is survived by three daughters, Hazel Ruth, Ethel Illah and Esther Lucile, all of the home, and Mrs. Pool's brother, Bertie Pool, who has made his home with them since babyhood.
