MISS MILLIGAN SUMMONED HOME BY DEATH ANGEL
Young Girl, In Life's Springtime, Dies Friday Afternoon After Long Illness
FUNERAL SERVICES ON MONDAY
Cloud of Gloom Overhangs Wide Circle of Her Young Friends Who Mourn Her Death.
Answering to the summons of the All-Wise-One, Miss Gladys Milligan, aged 22 years, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas V. Milligan, West Fourth street, passed peacefully away in death at the home of her grandmother, Mrs. J. W. Gardner, Pope avenue, at ten minutes to five o'clock last evening ( August 18, 1911), following an illness of over five months. Deceased was taken ill with typhoid fever in March but before recovering fully from that illness was again taken down with tubercular peritonitis and her condition gradually grew worse until death came last evening. Besides her parents, one brother, Harold, and one sister, Margaret, survive.
Being called so early in life, the death is a sad one and is deeply felt, not only in the home where once her smiles and kind ways were as a ray of sunshine, but among her wide circle of young friends where she was ever a merry companion and friend. By her kind and loving ways she was a favorite among her classmates and in the circles where but a few months ago she was so popular. Miss Milligan was a graduate of the East Liverpool High school with the Class of '06, a member of the First Presbyterian church, of this city, and also of Mrs. Will Taylor's Sunday school class of the First Methodist Episcopal church.
Funeral services over the remains will be held from the Gardner home on Pope avenue at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, Rev. E. M. McMillin, pastor of the First Presbyterian church officiating. Interment will be made in the Riverview cemetery.
