* The Independence Bulletin, Death of Emma Frizelle, Buchanan County, Iowa, July 1881:
This community was startled last Friday by a telegram announcing the death of Miss. Emma S. Frizelle, of Cincinnati,
which occurred at noon on that day, at her home in the city. The tidings were the more startling as no news of
her illness had been received here. The first reports were to the effect that she had died from sunstroke, but
we have since learned that congestion of the liver was the immediate cause of her death.
The deceased was born in the State of New York, and twenty years ago came to this city with her father's family,
remaining here until five years ago, when she went to Cincinnati to reside with her sister, Mrs. Cook, where though
her kind, generous nature, she won many friends, who join with her family in there sad bereavement. Both here and
in Cincinnati her kind, pleasant ways and smiling face will be long remembered by those who knew and appreciated
a true, noble woman.
Mrs. Cook accompanied the remains of her sister to this place, were she was buried Tuesday. Mrs. J. C. Ransier,
another sister, residing in Minneapolis, arrived, but too late for the funeral. She will remain a few days with
her friends here, and then return to her home.
