Death Of Mrs. Annls Is. Pile.

1t is our sad duty to record the death
Of this estimablc lady, the wife of Mr..
@. G. Pile, one of our Main Street Mer-
chants. which occurred at IA O'Clock
Sunday night. She was the daughter of
Mr.. W. X. Campbell, of Sullivan coun-
ty, and was in the oath year of her age,
having been born on the 10th of August,
1886. She was n dutiful daughter, a
loving and aflectionate wife, and was
endeared to all who knew her by her
genteness and many christian virtues.
She died in the faith of glorious i'm
mortality. While she was so young,
and hound to the earth by so many ties,
vet the glories and the happiness she
will experience in the brighter world
will more than compensate for the joys
of this life. Our svmpalhics are extend
Ell to the bcreayed husband and kindred
and friends, who are to-day bowed down
with great sorrow.
She was consistent member Of the
NJ. Z. Church, and was also member
of the knights and Ladies Of Honor
Her funeral takes place this morning at
10 O'Clock from the M. f. Church. Her
remains will be escorted to the grave Ivy
the knights of Honor, and knights and
Ladies' of Honor.
