OBITUARY..
MRS. MARGARET DOMAIN.

This estimable woman passed to her
rest Feb. 3, after weeks of great suffer-
ing borne without IA murmur. TO say
that good wife and mother has gone
would not tell it all. She was hard
working, conscientious woman, doing all
patiently and willingly that came in her
way to do. She and her husband. who
died little more than year ago, were
very much attached to each other. and
since his death her life has been very
lonely one, although her children have
done all for her that lay in their power
to do to make smooth the last part of
life's Journey. She died at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. Henry Currier, happy
in the hope of place among the saved
in Heaven. She was "A devout member of
the Roman Catholic church and one could
but admire her unbounded faith and
heartfelt devotion. Her funeral was
held at Shoreham at the Catholic church
the Wednesday following her death, and
her body placed by her husband in
ShOreham. She leaves two sons and four
daughters, all married, and one nephew
whom she took when babe and gave
him the same care and attention her
own children had. "Verily, she will have
her reward" X.
