Funeral services were held in the Methodist church, at Monica, of which she was a devout member, yesterday afternoon at two oclock with Rev. M. S. Swisher of the local church and her old pastor, Rev. J. W. Dees, now of Oneida, officiating. Interment was in the Princeville cemetery.

Hazel Evalean, daughter of Charles A. and Julia E. Buck, was born in Princeville township, near Monica on January 21, 1899 and departed this life at the home of her parents, January 1st, 1928, being 28 years 11 months and 10 days.

She was a graduate of the Princeville High School in the class of 1917. She also attended Browns Business college at Peoria and did office work for a time but began teaching school in the fall of 1919 and continued that vocation until illness compelled her to relinquish her work in February 1927, at which time she was teaching in Monica. With hopeful and courageous expectancy she fought determinedly against the obstinate and deadly malady, but she was obliged to take her bed on the 29th day of July, from which she was never again to rise.

She was a member of the Order of Eastern Star, at Union Grove Chapter No. 229 at Princeville and also a member of the White Shrine chapter at Canton, Illinois.

She leaves to mourn her loss, besides the heart-broken parents, four sisters and one brother namely; Mr. Clara M. Daily, Fort Madison, Ia., Harold M. Buck of Elmwood. Mrs. Vesta Mason of Peoria and Evelyn J. and Helen E. at home and one nephew, Charles M. Dailey.
