THE WESTERN STAR, 11 August 1916
Obituary of ALPHA HOLLOWAY
SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. FRED HOLLOWAY

Mrs. Fred Holloway died at her home a few miles southwest of this city at 3 o'clock p.m. on last Wednesday, August 9, 1916. Her sickness was of
short duration and the news of her death came as a surprise to all. She had apparently been in her usual good health, when, on last Friday evening, she was seized with a severe attack of inflammatory rheumatism.
Her condition gradually became worse and, in the end her heart became affected. Death came very suddenly. Funeral services were held at the home yesterday afternoon, Rev. A. G. Alexander of the Presbyterian
church being in charge. Interment was made in the Coldwater cemetery.

Deceased who before her marriage was Miss Alpha Perkins, was united in marriage with Fred Holloway in Meade, Kans., in October, 1911. Two children were born to the union - Francis, aged 3 and Edith, aged nearly 2. These, with the husband, are now bereft of a loving and devoted mother and wife. Had Mrs. Holloway lived until the 6th of next December, she would have been 20 years of age.
