Mrs. Royal H. Doud, former Boone Woman
Mrs. Mary C. Doud, mother of John S. Doud, of Boone, and James M. and Eli Doud, of Chicage, formerly stock men here, died today at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R. G. Schaf, Newark, New Jersey. The funeral services will be held in Chicago, - Register and Leader.

This was read with sorrow by a big majority of our Manning people, as Mrs. Doud was so well known and well liked by all here. She was a woman well met, always happy, had a pleasant word for everyone. Since their residence here four years ago, she has made several visits and enjoyed a trip to Manning more than anywhere else. She has been traveling a great deal since her husband's death, about a year after leaving here. He was connected with the Doud Milling Co. Mrs. Doud was an active member of the Ladies Reading Circle and never forgot them on her travels. Only New Years' Day they all received a card from her dated at Newark, N.J.
