Lottie B. Yaple, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samual Yaple, and for the past nine years the wife of J.B. Cass, was born in Afton 33 years ago and died at her home in this village, Sunday, Oct. 29. Her sudden death shocked and grieved her many friends and acquaintances as her last illness was of less than a week's duration, and few realized that her condition was critical. Mrs. Cass passed through a long and severe sickness last summer and although apparently regaining her former health she was not in condition to withstand the illness that attacked her some ten days ago. With the exception of two years which the deceased resided in Binghamton [Broome Co., NY], her entire life was spent in and about Afton [Chenango Co., NY], where she acquired a large acquaintance and her friends were numbered by her acquaintances. Mrs. Cass was a member of the Presbyterian church, Afton Chapter, No. 137, O.E.S., Afton N.P.L. and Vanderburg W.R.C. and was a faithful church and society worker. Funeral services were held from the late home yesterday afternoon at one o'clock, at which Rev. J.F. Shaw officiated. Members of the Eastern Star and W.R.C. attended in a body. The profusion of flowers, with pieces from the several societies of which she was a member, spoke of the popularity of the deceased. Burial was made in Glenwood cometery [Afton, Chenango Co., NY], the service at the grave being in charge of Afton Chapter No. 137, O.E.S. Deceased is survived by her husband, J.B. Cass, daughter, Mildred, her mother, Mrs. Carrie Yaple, and one sister Nelsie Yaple. The bereaved husband and young daughter are recipients of much sympathy in their loss of wife and mother.
