Steuben -Republican     November 1914

        EMERETT HAYDEN (POCOCK), was born November 2, 1863, near Crooked Lake
Steuben county, Indiana, on the farm now owned by Mrs. Libble Howell; she
departed this life November 11, 1914, at Union Hospital, Chicago, Illinois,
following a severe operation, aged 51 years and 9 days. 
        When she was but a child her parents moved to Angola, and in a few years
returned to the farm.  At the age of twenty, she moved with the family to
Clyde, Ohio, where she remained until her marriage to E.W. Pocock, April
10, 1887.  To this union were born four children- Ina, Lulu, Maurine, who
survive, and Paul, who died in infancy.  In early womenhood she gave her
heart to Christ and united with the Methodist Episcopal church.  A gentle
disposition and kind Christian spirit characterized her life.  She bore her
many burdens bravely for one of her strength, and endeared herself to all
who come to know her.
        She leaves to mourn their loss, a husband, three daughters, an aged mother
Mrs. Emeline Harden, of Clyde, Ohio, two sisters, Mrs. J.A. Robinson,
Toledo Ohio, Miss Ida Hayden, Clyde, Ohio, and five brothers, George,
Fosteria, Ohio, Clark, Kenton Ohio, Albert, Tiffin, Ohio, Fred, Los Angeles,
California, and Dan, Monessen, Penn., and a host of friends who will
cherish many pleasant memories of the past associations. 
        funeral services took place in the home on Friday, at 2:00 o'clock,
conducted by Rev. Polhemus; burial in Greenlawn cemetery.  Four brothers
and one sister were present at the funeral.
