2nd November 1923 - Death and Funeral of Mrs E.J. Crane
Death and Funeral of Mrs E.J. Crane
It is with much regret that we record the death of Mrs Ernest J. Crane, of Buntingford.
Mrs Crane, before her marriage was an assistant mistress in the Barkway Council Schools, a post she held with some distinction until her marriage in 1917. She was much esteemed by all her pupils on account of her kind disposition, and was greatly respected by a large circle of friends in Barkway and Buntingford.
After a short illness the end came on Sunday last, and much sympathy is felt for her sorrowing husband and her six months' old child.
On Wednesday afternoon the remains were conveyed by motor hearse to the deceased's old home at Barkway, where she was born. The funeral took place at Barkway yesterday (Thursday).
The Rev. W.T. Stubbs very impressively officiated at the service, and a large number of friends were present to pay their last respects.
Mrs Bowman presided at the organ, and the hymn sung was "On the Resurrection Morning." As the cortege left the church the organist played Mendelssohn's "Oh Rest in the Lord."
The plain oak coffin bore a breast plated inscribed:
Jessie R. Crane, Died October 28th, 1923, Aged 36 years.
