Rachel E. Dodge (1875-1890)

Rachel E. Dodge (1875-1890)

A copy of the following unidentified newspaper article was found in a scrapbook owned by Town Historian Richard Schmal:
    Rachel E. daughter of Paul and Ellen Dodge, died March 15, 1890. Aged 15 years, 3 months and 8 days. Rachel, by her quiet, modest, and womanly way, had won the esteem of all who knew her. She was dearly loved by her classmates, both in the Sabbath and day school. But in the bloom and freshness of her young life she has gone from us to a fairer clime, beyond the touch of death.

Two siblings, Lucretia A. Dodge Clark and Chester P. Dodge, also died in March 1890.
