Miss Lillian Hooker died in
Brantford Hospital on Sunday in her 19th year.
She was stricken with
influenza last October and pneumonia developed. She had treatment at
the Emergency Hospital and apparently recovered
well enough to leave the institution.
Later, however, bright's
disease made its appearance
and there being no place to take care of her in this
town she became a patient in Brantford Hospital,
where she has spent the intervening months.
She was the daughter of the
late John Hooker and
of Mrs. Hooker, now of Charlotteville.
Her remains were brought to
Simcoe to the home of Henry Crabb. The funeral was held yesterday
at
2 p.m. from the Baptist Church to Oakwood Cemetery.
Her clergyman, Rev. Mr. Newcombe conducted the
last rites.
For some time the deceased
young woman was an employee in the E. H. Jackson drug store.
