A Noble Woman Taken
Mrs. Harlow D. Billings was born in northern Wisconsin December 19, 1882, and departed this life in Delphos, Kansas, at 3 o'clock p.m., Thursday February 12, 1914, aged 31 years, one month and 23 days. The deceased's maiden name was Ellarene Bishop and she and sister, Beulah, were left orphans at the ages of six years and one year, respectively.

Mr. and Mrs. Billings were united in marriage at Appleton, Wisconsin, August 24, 1904, and shortly returned to Delphos and took up their residence here. To this happy union three sons - George, aged 6; Arthur, aged 4; and Roger, aged 2 years - came as a blessing and comfort to this almost ideal home.

The deceased was taken seriously ill by an attack of pneumonia Sunday, February 1st, and despite the fact that some of the best medical skill at home and abroad were doing all possible to check the ravages of the disease yet without avail, as the patient sufferer continued to grow weaker every day until the end came. Funeral services were held from the Presbyterian Church at Minneapolis. His text was "Watchman, What of the Night?" He paid an eloquent tribute to the departed. The church by 1:15 o'clock was filled to overflowing by sympathizing friends and neighbors and numbers were forced to go away, not being able to obtain an entrance. The Delphic Club attended in a body, Mrs. Billings having been an active member. The floral offerings were profuse and very beautiful. The sister was not present at the funeral, owing to being in France and not having time to reach home. Three little boys are left to suffer the irreparable loss of a loving, devoted mother, a husband to mourn the loss of a dutiful wife, a sister to weep for an only and affectionate sister, and Father and Mother Billings to grieve for (to them) an only daughter. Truly, a good women has been cut down in her prime, and her loss to the community is great. The sympathy of all goes own to those who mourn in their hours and days of sorrow, and may they look to Him who is able to ‘bind up the broken hearted' for comfort and consolation.

"Oh land beyond the setting sun!
Oh realm more fair than poet's dream!
How clear thy silvery streamlets run,
How bright thy golden glories gleam.
For well we know that fair and bright,
Far beyond human ken or dream
Too glorious for our feeble sight
Thy skies of cloudless azure beam."

Mrs. H.D. Billings' Death Shock to Community
The death of Mrs. H.D. Billings, which occurred early last Friday morning at the Concordia hospital, was very much of a shock to the Delphos community.

Mrs. Billings was taken to the hospital Wednesday, suffering from heart attacks and a choking spell, caused by a chicken bone being lodged in her throat. She and the boys were eating, and it is not definitely known whether she choked first and thus brought on the heart attack, or whether the attack caused the choking. At the hospital it was found that the bone had passed on down her throat, but left a badly inflamed throat and a small cut, which became infected. Between the infection and the heart attacks, death was the result.

Her death was the more a shock to the community at large, as it was not known that her health was particularly poor. She was not of a disposition to talk of her own troubles, but she had suffered several years with her heart and of recent weeks, the attacks had become closer together, giving her and the family somewhat of a warning of the ultimate end.

Mrs. Billings had served the past seven years as treasurer of the Delphos school district, and had taken much interest in school affairs. She was a member of the Delphic Club, the Eastern Star, and also of the W.C.T.U., and all of these bodies, together with a group of girls from the schools, were represented at the funeral service.

She had been a nurse before her marriage to Mr. Billings, and in her residence in Delphos, she had taken pride in doing many acts of kindness wherever there was sickness, and many people here will remember her for these kindnesses.

Out of town relatives present a the funeral service were her mother, Mrs. L.L. Voorhees, of St. Joseph, and three brothers, Jos. And Eph Voorhees, of Leavenworth and Mrs. And Mrs. B.G. Voorhees of St. Joseph. Many friends from Glasco, Salina, Beloit, Concordia and Minneapolis also attended the funeral.
