Emma Eliza GALLUP was born at Mauston, Wis., May 8th, 1863. She was one
of three children born to Frank and Harriet GALLUP, all having preceded her into the great Beyond. Her parents moved to the southern part of the state when she was but a child. On April 7th, 1898, she was married to Mr. George HEYDON. To this union were born two children; a son, who died in infancy and a daughter, Harriet.
Mrs. HEYDON died last Saturday morning following a brief but severe illness, at the
age of 56 years. She leaves to mourn her death, her daughter Harriet, several distant relatives and a large number of friends.
Twelve years ago Mrs. HEYDON gave her heart to God and joined the Milton
Methodist Church under the ministry of Brother Hatelstad and continued a true child of God and faithful member of the church until her death. She now belongs to the Church Triumphant whose location is heaven.
Mrs. HEYDON was an unassuming woman of a somewhat retiring nature; for that
reason her close friends may have been fewer, but surely choicer. Only those who were real intimate, really knew Mrs. HEYDON. All such will say, "A true woman and friend has left us."
The funeral services were conducted from the home Tuesday afternoon, Rev. W. S.
Carr in charge. Rev. Anton Hatlestad, a former pastor of the deceased, preached the funeral sermon. Mr. and Mrs. S. SUMMERS, accompanied by Mrs. ARRINGTON, sang beautifully three songs. Interment was in the Milton cemetery. W. S. Carr. [Thursday edition, p. 1]
