Taken from Obituaries of Fountain County, Indiana found July 19, 2007 -- Xenia Cox,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Cox, of Sterling, passed away at Indianpapolis, Sept 10
aged about 11 yeares. A beautiful young life has been measured. Although personally
unknown to the writer, her life is lovingly praised by all who knew her best. Devotion to
her chosen profession of teaching filled her mind and was ever the theme of her thought
until her work ended. In the morning of young womanhood she has gone, like one who draws
the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to pleasant dreams. She had been taken to
Indianapolis for treatment and everything that medical skill could do was done for the
sufferer but nothing could reach her ailment and she passed to sweet rest. The funeral was
conducted in Sterling at 10 a.m. Friday by Rev. WP Shamhart, pastor of the Church of
Christ, after which the interment took place near Kingman - Veedersburg news. The
deceased was a resident of Kingman for a number of years and was beloved by all, and
nothing but words of regret were heard on all sides when the sad news of her death reached
our community.
