Johnston, Sadie O. (1873 - 11 Jan. 1936)

Sorrow came to a large circle of friends, when it was learned Sunday morning, that Mrs. David Johnston, well known and highly esteemed resident of Houghtonburg vicinity had passed away suddenly the night before. Mrs. Johnston had gone hurriedly to a neighbor’s, James Dunlap’s late Saturday evening to call a physician for Mr. Johnston, who was ill. While waiting for the telephone call to be put through, she fell into a chair and expired, heart failure being the cause of her death. While her many friends knew that she was not enjoying the best of health, her sudden taking away was a great shock to all.

Funeral services were held on Wednesday, afternoon at the M. E. Church in Merrillan, Rev. F. A. Fahlgren officiating, and burial was in the family lot in Houghtonburg Cemetery.
