The hand of the "Grim Reaper”,
not entirely unexpected, descended
upon Seward yesterday a/fternoon

erend Love was operated upon for
acute appendicitis last Sunday and
up until yesterday afternoon wTas j
thought to have passed the crisis. A I
change in his condition took place in I
the early afternoon and 20 minutes J
from the time he was conversing,)
jokingly with friends, he was dead.
Reverend Love was about 30 years .
of age and came to Alaska just a j
year ago this month accompanied by j
his bride of a few weeks. For weeks i
i
past he was anxiously lookine; for-!
ward to the time of the annual |
Puget Sound Methodist conference;
session, next month, when he expect-1
ed to be admitted as one of its mem- j
bers. As a worker at the Home he j
was loved by all and especially so by j
the children with whom he was with]
constantly.
Funeral service will be conducted
tomorrow afternoon at 2 o’clock at
the Home by Reverend Hat ten as
sisted by Reverend Graham. The
body will be shipped to Salem, Ore.,
for burial.
