Irene (Foote) Case, Sherburne News, April 18, 1891: Our community was painfully startled on Wednesday to learn that Mrs. Irene (Foote) Case, wife of DeWitt C. Case, had died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. John M. Howard, after an illness of but scarce thirty-six hours. The deceased had gone up to her daughter's Saturday last to nurse her, she suffering with a serious attack of pleurisy. On Tuesday she was taken with a severe pain in the side. There was being held at the time a consultation of doctors on Mrs. Howard's condition, two physicians being present--Crumb of Sherburne, and Beebe, of Hamilton. Doctor Beebe administered a hypodermic injection of morphia to Mrs. Case, and gave directions to Dr. Crumb, who was the regularly attending physician, to repeat the dose later in the day. The deceased went into an unconscious state, and, although strenuous efforts were made to rouse her, they were unsuccessful, and she passed away Wednesday about 2 p.m., amid the grief-stricken family which surrounded her. The deceased had been in ill health for some time from pleurisy, and this, complicated with pneumonia, is the reported cause of death. Mrs. Irene Case was the daughter of Asa Foote, and has always resided in this town [Sherburne, Chenango Co., NY]. She was born January 16, 1847, and was married to DeWitt C. Case February 20, 1867, by whom she had four children, two sons and two daughters. She leaves, besides, her father, mother, two brothers, J. Foote of this village, and John D. Gale, of Buffalo, and two sisters, Mrs. H.V.D. Hoyt, of Goshen, and Mrs. Charles D. Reynolds, of this town. She was a devoted wife and mother, and few would be more missed in the family circle. She, early in life, became a member of Christ (Episcopal) Church, this village, and was a conscientious Christian lady. She leaves many friends outside the family who will mourn with them in their sudden bereavement. The funeral services were held at the home of the deceased Friday afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. T.A. Stevenson officiating, and the remains interred in the family lot in the Quarter cemetery.
