MRS. SARAH JANE sHIPMAN
The death of this most estimable woman
occurred at her late residence Thursday after
noon After an illness of less than a week,
the end was sudden and painful to the large
circle of friends who loved her. Hers was a
brave and noble soul, and she accepted death
and the separation from those she devoutly
loved with the same calm and peaceful resig-
nation with which she was won't to accept the
misfortunes and vicissitudes of life, and al
though she could not conquer death as she
had overcome the many obstacles in life. yet
she had an everything soul, which in her brief
illness was waited TRANQUILITY to God. She
was born in Hardwick October Is, 1922, and
was the eldest child of William O. and Susan
b. SWEET. She was married to Charles Ship
man Nov. 1, 1916, who died at Springfield.

Swett. her father, who is 81 years of age, and
whose declining years she has strewn with
flowers, also survives her. more loving
loyal, or faithful wife, mother or daughter
was never given to a home 1t was her CEN
ter, her royal kingdom, and nobly did she |
reign, not by dictatorial will but by winning |
love. The heart of her aged father, her chill |
dren, and her many friends rise up and call |
her blessed, which is the grandest eulogy |

dence, which were largely attended; all the |
children living were present. The services |
