Mrs. REUBEN BRooKs.-After only a
few weeks of sickness, Mrs. Brooks pass
ed away July s, 1889 at THE ripe old age
OF so years-watched over and loved by
her children ana having the respect and
kindness of all around her. Attic her
children sorrow that she has gone they
still rejoice and are glad that she was
spared so long to be a comfort and a
light in their homes. Strong and tender
were the ties that bound all the members
of this family together in sympathy and
affection. Shadows have passed over
her life. Death came and bore away
husband and children but she calmly
trusted in Him who does all things well.
Altho' she was born in Walpole, n. Y.
and passed her younger days there, yet
most of her life has been spent in Bethel
where she has seen children and grand
children grow up TO manhood and wom-
anhood who have given her the same
care and watchful tenderness as she
gave them in the days of their child
hood. On Wednesday of this week the
funeral services were conducted by Rev.
; 4. Parker at the home of her son.
Walter NJ. Brooks. We all feel that a
good woman has gone in the serenity
and peace of age.
