MRS. SEAMAN DEAD.

Former Well-Known Resident of Marietta Township Dies in Nebraska.

Word from Gibbon, Neb., received by friends here, announces the death of Mrs. Orilla Seaman, wife of William Seaman, which occurred at the home of Mrs. Walter Nichols, near Gibbon. The body is expected to reach this city Wednesday, and will be taken to Marietta, where the funeral will be held from the Friends' meeting house at 11 o'clock Thursday.

Mrs. Seaman was a daughter of Thomas Hogue, an old resident of Marietta for many years, now of West Liberty. She was about 50 years of age, and with her husband went to Gibbon about two years ago last fall. She has one other daughter aside from Mrs. Nichols, Mrs. Nellie Dean, of Primghar. Two brothers, Owen and Sylvanus Hogue, of West Liberty, also survive the deceased with their father.
