From: The Crestline Advocate Dec 6, 1873 Jottings from our Shelby Shelby, Ohio Dec 4, 1873 Miss Aggie Dickerson died on Monday evening last. Her funeral took place Dec 3d.
The services were conducted by Rev. D.I. Foust and sermon preached
by Rev. J.F. Shearer of Bellefontaine. Her death has cast a gloom over out entire town.

There was, perhaps no lady ever lived here more highly esteemed, or more truly
beloved by all that knew her. No one in Shelby posessed as fine musical abilities,
both vocal and instremental. She will be most deeply missed in the
Lutheran Church where she played the organ for years. The music cor the
occasion was furnished by an octet of the Shelby musich circle of which
the deceased was a member. Two of the pieces were especially arranged by
Prof. G. Bowman for the occasion, they were so appropriate, and the music
so well rendered that all present were deeply affected. The funeral was very largely attended and her remains were followed to the Oakland
Cemetery by any friends...
