The latter died while a babe a month old. As a girl she united with the Evangelical church and upon her marriage transferred to the Methodist church, in which she remained a very faithful and conscientious worker to the end. She was a Christian woman of rare charm and sweetness, reflecting the spirit of her Master ina most wonderful way.

In addition to these near relatives there is a large circle of other relatives, neighbors and friends who will miss one whose love was as pure as gold refined by fire. The members of her church, her neighbors, and indeed the whole community join in expressing to those who stood dearest to her, their deepest sympathy and affestion, and join in the prayer that the Heavenly Father's choicest blessing may sooth and comfort them in this hour of sorrow.
