     The clipping on FindAGrave has a caption: This undocumented obituary came from an old privately owned scrapbook of Marietta area residents. These were published in a Marietta weekly, which changed names over the years, so it might be from the "Marietta Register", The Mariettan" or the "Marietta Times", all of which are non-existent today.
     My own note, those papers didn't exist in 1905 either.4
