Lidderdale woman called by death. Mrs. Mary Jost, wife of the Elevator Manager, Succumbs after many weeks of Illness. The funeral of Mrs Mary Jost, formerly Miss Mary Best, Sunday afternoon, was without question the largest that Lidderdale has ever seen. Not only were all the aisles in the church crowded, but there were almost as many outside as within the church. Mrs Mary Christine Jost was born in Grant twp. on Feb. 6, 1882 and lived in the neighborhood of Lidderdale all her life. Oct. 6, 1909, she was united in marriage to Henry J. Jost, who is manager of the Farmers Union elevator at Lidderdale. Mary Jost was of a kind and lovable disposition, one of those characters who make friends but seldom lose one. She was a faithful member of the Lutheran Church and the Tabitha Ladies Aid where her absence will be painfully noticed. Thursday afternoon at about 3:30 o'clock death relieved her from her intense suffering. Funeral services were held at Imm. Lutheran Church and interment taking place in the Lutheran cemetery. She leaves to mour her untimely death her bereaved husband; Herald, her only son; her parents, Mr and Mrs John Best of Glidden; her sisters, Mrs Jacob Janssen and Mrs Henry Wenck, and her brothers, Fred and Cord Best all of Carroll county.
