26489. Ita Elzena James

Hudson Tribune (S.D.)

Mrs. Odell, while in apparent good health, was stricken down with spasms last Sunday afternoon, immediately becoming unconscious, and although the best medical service to be had was recurred, she remained in a comatose state, until death released her from the unconscious suffering.

Ita James was born at Lone Rock, Wis., on May 20, 1872. She with her family lived in Wisconsin until she was 11 years of age, when they moved to Artesian, this state. They resided there for about 7 years, going from there to Sioux City where they lived for about a year. She came from Sioux City here and spent the winter with friends, and during that time the family returned to Wisconsin and she soon followed.

On Jan. 27, 1892, she was married to M. R. Odell and returned to Hudson where they have since lived. She was a bright, vivacious, accomplished, and loving woman; a faithful wife and kind mother; a friend to everybody and loved and respected by all who knew her.

She leaves to mourn her untimely death, a broken hearted husband, a sweet little baby girl three years old, a devoted step-son, loving father, mother, three brothers and a host of friends.

Gurley, a Methodist minister who was ordained under John Wesley in Ireland and left that country during the Irish rebellion in which the Catholics and Orangemen were in conflict. He was sentenced to death at one time but was spared because of his skill in work as a silversmith and much of his work was for the church all of which was done with gloves, thus not touching the work with hands that had been consecrated. He lived to be 91 years old.

Mr. and Mrs. Haskell came to Harney Valley in 1882 arriving here June 22, from Long Valley, California.
