------------------------------------------
The obituary above, dated 25 September (Wednesday) states that death occurred on the previous Tuesday, which would be 24 September 1935. Yet the Find-a-Grave memorial reporting this obituary gives the date of death as 21 September, which was the previous Saturday. I have not seen a photo of the gravestone and can find no transcription of the cemetery. Could the grave have a different date of death than that reported by the obituary?
