Bio

Friday, November 1, 1907 Page 6 Mrs. Van Vleet died, Wednesday, October 30. She was stricken with paralysis sometime the last of June and has been a great sufferer ever since. She was the mother of Frank and Oscar Van Vleet and also of Mesdames Thomas, Adams and Leopold. Friday, November 8, 1907 Page 6 A SINGULAR CASE OF SUSPENDED ANIMATION – Mrs. Van Vleet whom we reported dead last week. We received the news of her death just in time to send with our communication. Rigor mortis seemed to prevail. But after awhile reanimation obtained, and the old lady lived until last night, when she passed peacefully away. We received word of her reviving last week too late for correction. The poor old sufferer is released from her terrible ordeal. To make it more distressing to her friends, she lost the power of speech, six months ago. “We are gathering home one by one.“ Let the watch word be: “Prepare to meet thy God.” The McCook Tribune, McCook Nebraska Contributor: KKing (49411470)
