PEARL BRITTON
Source: Crawfordsville Journal Review September 30, 1960
Miss Pearl E. Britton, 87, was removed to Culver Hospital about 7:30 p.m. Friday after she was found ill at her home at 415 E. Franklin St. Julian Carter, her guardian, said he was called by a relative who became alarmed when the woman had not been seen for some time and failed to answer her door. Carter summoned Warren McGaughey, attorney and police. After failing to rouse the woman, they entered the house to find her in a weakened condition and asleep on her bed. A physician was summoned to examine the woman and ordered her removed to the hospital. She was reported in fair condition and appeared to be suffering from malnutrition. (Note: Pearl Britton died in April 1961)
