Lima Daily News, April 5, 1906
"SUDDEN DEATH AT AN EARLY HOUR THIS MORNING OF MRS. CLEMENTINE CUNNINGHAM 
BRICE, HEART DISEASE BEING THE CAUSE OF HER TAKING OFF. WAS ONE OF LIMAS 
OLDEST RESIDENTS BEING THE SECOND ????? BABY BORN IN THIS CITY.

Leaves but two children, Mrs. O. B. Selfridge and City Engineer John Brice  
Funeral Saturday afternoon at One Oclock.  From the Residence.

Mrs. Clementine Cunningham Brice, stepmother of the late Senator Calvin S. 
Brice, and mother of City Engineer John Brice and Mrs. O. B. Selfridge, died 
suddenly this morning about 2:30 oclock of heart trouble, from which she had 
suffered several attacks during the last year.

Deceased is the daughter of Dr. William Cunningham, one of the pioneer 
families of Lima and lived at the old homestead, corner of Elizabeth and Elm 
streets.  She was born September 15th, 1832, and was the second ????? baby 
born in Lima, and Allen County for that matter.  She spent her girlhood days 
in Lima and in February, 1853,  married W. K. Brice.  For the next seventeen 
years she lived with her husband at Columbus Grove, he officiating as pastor 
of the Presbyterian church at that place.  Two years after his death, which 
occurred in 1870, she returned to this city and has resided here ever since, 
living at 714 west Market Street.

Mrs. Brice was prominently identified with church and mission work during her 
active years.  She was a sister of the late Doan Cunningham and the only 
remaining one of her generation is Mrs. Josiah Williams, whose place of 
residence is on south Main street.

The funeral will be held Saturday afternoon at one oclock from the late 
residence on west Market street, and the funeral services will be preached by 
an eminent Presbyterian Divine, Dr. Samuel Palmer, pastor of the Broad Street 
Church in Columbus.  He was a Sunday school pupil of Mrs. Brice at Columbus 
Grove and was baptized by Rev. Brice.  The burial will be in Woodlawn 
cemetery."
