MRS. EMANUEL BECKY DEAD.

Mrs. Emanuel Beck died at her home, 917 Cottonwood street, this morning at ?:15 o'clock (blurry). Mrs. Becky had been in failing health since last winter from a complication of diseases, but a recent attack of acute indigestion was the cause of her death.

Mrs. Becky had been a resident of Emporia since 1869. Her maiden name was Fianna Halderman (sic). She was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, June 30, 1835, and grew to womanhood there. She was married to Emanuel Beck in 1856, and several years later they moved to Woodsfield, Ohio, where they lived ten years. They came to Emporia in October, 1869. Mr. Beck died in February, 1912.

Mrs. Beck is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Hugh F. Holmes and Mrs. M. F. Bray, of Emporia. She lived with Mrs. Bray. Two children died in infancy, and a daughter, Mrs. Emma Abraham, died at her home in Texas twenty years ago. She is also survived by two sisters, Mrs. William Gable, of Lititz, Pa., and Mrs. Henry Cooper, of Talmage, Pa., and one brother, Thomas Halderman, of the same town. Five surviving grandchildren are--Mrs. Robert H. Holmes, Emporia; Mrs. N. B. Remley, Milwaukee, Wis.; Mrs. E. N. Green, Collegeport, Texas; Mrs. L. M. Kelly and Mr. Robert Abraham, of Fairbanks, Texas. There are three great-grandchildren.

Mrs. Beck united with the Lutheran Church in her girlhood. Upon coming to Emporia she united with the First United Methodist Church. Her life's interests were largely within her home and with her children. Her generous nature was evidenced by her gifts to poor families whom she had befriended all her life. Her death has caused sorrow in many homes of Emporia.

The funeral will be held at the home tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. Rev. Bascom Robbins will conduct the services. Interment will be made in Maplewood Cemetery. Mrs. Beck's nephew, Charles Halderman, of Bellingham, Wash., who has been visiting here, will be the only one of the out of town relatives present.
