MERRIAM - EDITH M. 'LORD" - Ellsworth, 1915

EDITH  M.  MERRIAM

Bar Harbor Times
May 8, 1915

Edith M.., wife of Arthur H. Merriam and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank S. Lord of this city, died Tuesday evening at her home in Essex Conn., after a short illness of acute Bright's disease.  The parents were summoned hastily on Saturday when she became suddenly and critically ill.  Reports on Monday that she was slightly better revived the hopes of her many friends here and the news of her death last evening was a great shock.
Mrs. Merriam was born in Ellsworth twenty-eight years ago, and this city had been her home until her marriage on June 3 last.  She was a graduate of the Ellsworth High School and of happy, generous-hearted disposition was one of the most popular of her set of young girls.
She leaves besides her husband and parents, two sisters, Mabel and Ruth, and one brother, Harvard.  To the family the sympathy of the community goes out in full measure.
