Pearl May Hill
The death of Miss Pearl May Hill took place at noon yesterday at the Home
hospital. Her death was the ending of an illness that covered a period of
two years. The disease with which she was afflicted was progressive
pernicious anaemia, and she had been a great sufferer. She was patient
through it all, and won the admiration of those attending her by her
gentleness. The deceased was the daughter of the late Dr. W. H. Hill of
Dayton, and was reared in that village. She was born in Jefferson, Clinton
county, Aug. 27, 1876, and her education was completed at Purdue University,
from where she graduated in 1899. Two sisters, Dora E. and Margaret Hill
survive. The deceased was a member of Dayton Chapter No. 263 [233] Order of
Eastern Star. She was an accomplished and cultured woman and possessed many
noble qualities. Her death is deeply regretted by all who knew her. The
funeral will be conducted from the family residence in Dayton tomorrow
morning at 10:30 oclock. Rev. Frank N. Palmer of Winona will officiate and
the interment will be made in the Dayton cemetery.
