    • Former Resident Dies at Hasting
      Arapahoe – Edyth L. Tull, 77, died Friday at the Good Samaratan Village in Hasting, where she had been a resident for nearly two years.
      Born in Iowa, she had spent most of her life in this community and is perhaps best remembered by many for her services as an operator for the Arapahoe Telephone Co. She was an operator for nearly 50 years and had served in various exchanges in the state before joining the Arapahoe firm.
      In failing health for quite some time, she was some improved and able to be about until receiving a broken hip in a fall last September, with resultant complications.
      Surviving her are three brothers and six sisters, Clifford and Otto Tull, Margaret Billesbach and Mrs. R.F. Emmett, Arapahoe; Elmer Tull and Evelyn Tull of Phoenix, Ariz.; Mrs. R.P. Disbrow, Holdrege; Mrs. N.B. Carroll and Mrs. C.G. Magee, McCook.
      Funeral services and burial were at Arapahoe Monday afternoon.
