Short Service Tonight at Dr. McNeil Residence, Body Will Then Be Taken to West Virginia.
Tuesdays Daily Mail and Post.
Mrs. J. W. Pelot passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. M. T. McNeil yesterday afternoon at 3:40 o'clock.
Mrs. Pelot had been in ill health for more than a year, suffering from complications superinduced by an attack of influenza. At various times her condition apparently seemed better, but the improvement was never permanent despite the best of medical skill and nursing, and about a week ago she became much worse and it was realized that there was no hope for her recovery. Mrs. Pelot's home was in Huntington, W. Va., but during the past few years she has spent much of her time with her daughter and her family here.
She was a woman of charming personality and remarkable ability as well as forceful character. She had been for years a member of the Christian church In Huntington, and was deeply interested in all of the activities of the organization. She was an ardent suffragist and was one of the pioneers and leaders in the movement in her native state of West Virginia.
Mrs. Pelot spent much of her time during the war in active patriotic work, doing Red Cross work and assisting in various Liberty Loan campaigns.
The deceased is survived by only one daughter, Mrs. McNeil, wife of Dr. McNeil, of this city, and two grandsons.
Her husband, J. W. Pelot, who was a prominent C. and O. railroad official, passed away seven years ago.
A short service will be held at the residence tonight by Rev. Stout, and the body accompanied by Dr. and Mrs. McNeil will be taken to Huntington, W. Va., for interment.
Dr. McNeil and family will return to Nevada in about ten days and will remain here a short time before going to Los Angeles, Calif., where they expect to locate.
