Gaskill, Lottie (Charlotte Ruby) (24 AUG 1889 – 28 SEP 1905)

Lottie Gaskill passed away last Thursday morning, Sept. 28, at Sedro Wooley, Wash., of typhoid fever, aged 16 years, after a short illness.

Charlotte Ruby Gaskill was born in McKenney, Jackson county, Wis., Aug. 24, 1889, her parents being Willard W. Gaskill and Frances Elberta Marvin Gaskill, formerly of Fairchild. She lived here until 10 years of age, when she accompanied her mother to Washington, joining Mr Gaskill who had gone before them. The family had since resided at Bellingham, Wash. She was the only daughter and her loss will be felt in bitterness of hearts for all the years to come, both by the parents and by her grandfather, J.C. Marvin. Internment was at Lyden, Wash.

Many friends here feel deeply for the bereaved ones and express it through The Observer.
