THREE
SMALL CHILDREN
LEFT SAD
DEATH OF MRS.
HERMAN W.
ARISMAN SATURDAY AFTERNOON FROM
PNEUMONIA. ENTIRE VILLAGE
MOURNS
FOR
A
WOMAN OF THE HIGHEST CHARACTER
AND USEFULNESS. -
BABY
EIGHT
DAYS OLD WHEN
HIS
MOTHER
PASSED
AWAY. Mrs. Nellie
Bennett Arisman,
wife of Herman W.
Arisman,
died Saturday afternoon at 5
o'clock at the
family
home in
Greenwood
street from
pneumonia with
which she
had been
ill
since
the
birth of
her baby
boy
eight days previously.
During
the last few days
she
suffered terribly and as
the vital fires
gradually
cooled
from the
extremities
to the
center
and the lamp of life
burned
low, death came to
relieve her
from
the
pain of the
dread disease.
There was no
woman in Canisteo
who had more
friends or was
held in a
deeper
feeling of
respect and
affection. She was
a
model mother and an
affectionate,
devoted,
loyal and
helpful wife
of the rare
kind.
Nature
had
been generous in
providing her
unusual mental
ability, strong
ambition and
the utmost
energy and
eagerness to work,
resulting
in
making her
one of the
most useful
and honored
residents of
Canisteo.
She was suffering from
influenza
and a very
severe
cough at
the time
of the
birth of
the baby,
eight
days
before her
death.
At the
same
time her husband
and
the
two
older
children
also
came down with
influenza and
pneumonia,
and were all
dangerously ill
during
the
fatal
illness of the wife
and
mother. The others
gradually
began to recover,
but in the
last few days her
condition
grew rapidly and
steadily
worse.
Everything
possible was done
and
oxygen
was administered
throughout
the day
Saturday, but
without
avail.
Her
death cast a feeling of
deep
sorrow and lasting
sadness
over this village
where most
of her life was
spent
and
where she
was
respected and loved by
all.
She was born
in
Troupsburg 38
years ago the
15th of
next
May. She was
educated at
Canisteo
Academy
and
graduated, soon
after which
she
married Herman W.
Arisman
14
years ago.
They lived on
the
Turnpike near
Hornell
for a year and
then moved to
Canisteo.
She was active
in
church work
and
the affairs of
the village
and
was a
member
of the M.E.
church, president of
the
Ladies' Aid
Society,
teacher of the
Temple
Philathea
Sunday school
class, a
member of
the
History club,
the
D.A.R., and the
Eastern
Star
and was an
indefatigable
worker in
all. Her
death
has
left a vacancy that
will
long be
unfilled.
She
leaves her husband,
three children, Grace
aged 13,
Walter
aged 5,
and Marshall
aged 11 days,
and her
mother,
Mrs. Harlo Howard of
Woodhull.
The
family have the
deepest
sympathy of
all. The
funeral
was held
yesterday at 2
o'clock from the
Methodist
church,
Rev. Dr. M.
J. Hill
officiating. There
was
a
large
attendance and the
floral
tributes
were many. The
Canisteo chapter,
Eastern
Star,
the D.A.R. and the
History
club attended in body.
Burial
was made
in Woodlawn
